Well here goes....
I have a quicksilver mac here at work, that i tried cloning using ccc carbon copy cloner, which didn't do the job, the software is great, but im afraid it is because of my hard drive. Now, the job finished successfully and i selected make bootable before the installation, but it will not boot for some reason. The hard drive itself is making those e-e-e, e-e-e, e-e-e noises as the destop loads, then it will go away and everything seems fine. Sometimes searching in the finder or what not will also cause the drive to cause that also. I am going to pick up a new drive this weekened in the event that I have to reload everything. My questions.
1)Is there an easy way to get the applications at least over to the new drive if i do a fresh install of osx and os9 on the new drive. He has so many apps, including suitcase, which i hate having to deal with. FONTS BAHHHHH!
2)Could I get this cloned hard drive working somehow?
3)If i go to install a fresh copy of os9 and osx does that new hard drive have to be in his machine? Or can put it in my machine(not a quicksilver, its a powerpc G4) and load the os's? Or would there be a confilict with his machine if I start loading the os's from mine.
What do you guys suggest?
Appreciate it, Bob
