Tiger booting problem

macco

Look above : it's me
Hi all,

I have installed Tiger on my mac (ibook G4- 12 inch) from scratch, as my hard-disk went dead and I had to replace it (on the old one I had Panther). all went smooth, I finished the installation, and then for a couple of weeks all okay (during all this time I did not restarted it or anything, leaving it all the time in sleep mode), but now I see that when I am trying to restart it, some times I get the blinking folder icon, as the firmware does not find the OS to boot. All I have to do is stop it restart it and all is okay. Any ideas of what might be wrong ?

Thanks a lot
 
Chances are, you never went to System Preferences / Startup Volume and selected your startup volume. I saw this before and it was the case.

Have a look…
