Ok so I have got techtools to work and there is an error volume structure is corrupt. So downloaded DW but I can't boot it until the disc arrived in post. Might try and hook up the PowerBook and use target disk mode?

Your iMac is not going to boot the powerbook through target disk mode or vice-versa. The DW disk should be there shortly.

Sorry I didn't make much sense there. I meant hook up the PowerBook to the iMac via fw then boot the PowerBook and run dw from there with iMac started in target disk mode. The PowerBook can then see the iMac startup disk as a mounted volume and dw can rebuild. Well all that went well- dw reported many issues with the iMac startup disk but generated an error 2351,36
