Although it does mention about FireWire boot mode improvements or something.
I posted the same problem on macfixit but so far no one has replied to me with a helpful suggestion...
I tried pressing opt while booting up. Screen came up with an "rotation" icon, "arrow" icon, and the drive that's selected. I pressed the rotation icon several times but it only showed the hard disk with OSX on it. I use a PowerBook G4 with DVD-ROM drive, if that matters.
Any more suggestions?

I'm just done studying C right now. Gotta catch up!
I'll look into Apple's developer web site. I was hoping...
Hi,
I'm a fairly new programmer who have been coding some simple MacOS 9 PPC apps with CodeWarrior Pro 4. Now that OS X's release is coming close, I want to get ready to program Carbon/Cocoa apps. But, I am totally confused.
I use CWPro4, and I felt the need to upgrade to 6. Does anyone know...
