G5 disk utilities

I have just bought some new G5's and foolishly have realized that of my disk utilities are working with this. (Disk Warrior, Norton) I cannot boot from those CD's, because of the "special" version of Jaguar that G5's use.

Anyone else running into this problem? Ideas?

Thanks for your help,

Russ
 
Get the newest version of DiskWarrior and it will boot fine.
I wouldn't use Norton's on OS X again. Do some searching, it's cause a lot of people problems, and Symantec admits it's not completely compatible.

With the built in maintanence and DW, that's about all you need. Get Cocktail from http://www.versiontracker.com and use that for various things. clecn cache, run routines, etc.
 
Thanks for the reply.

I just spoke to Alsoft Tech Support and they said the current CD's will not boot G5's. But they will release a CD within 1-2 weeks that will boot G5. Registered users will be able to get a CD for a nominal fee (guy mentioned $12.95 or something).

Cocktail is great!

Thanks,

Russ
