I have a PBook G3 Pismo (Firewire) with the latest Firmware installed. I
also have an external Firewire device (with Oxford 911 chip set) with an
Apple 2.5' 5 gb HD (with Mac OS 9.1 installed on the external 2.5). When I
plug in the ext Firewire drive all is normal in every way (copying/deleting
files etc). I can select the FWire drive in the startup control panel....but
it never starts up from this drive. The PBook tries to start up from the
Oxford 911 (Clearlight box) but always goes back to the internal drive.
HELP...any suggestions?
