I don't have a problem with switching to broad band. But I think the price is way to high. I would only use probably a couple of hours a day with many days of no use at all. It is hard to justify $50+ per month for something I do not use on a regular basis, plus the cost of cable TV which is...

It looks to me like if you only have a dial up connection to the internet most of the new features of Jaguar and .Mac are pretty useless. I still think the majority of users use a dialup connection for the web. Even auto software updates are painfully slow. Where I live cable and dsl are...

What is a smb URL? How do you share a drive on a windows box? Is this kind of thing documented anywhere on the net? I can't seem to find anything. calliex

OK OK I downgraded the memory and got to install. I snapped a key off the keyboard in the process but I found a keyboard on ebay for $10. I still say Apple should have found the installer probem when they tested on the Wallstreet and fixed it. The fact that when I called they just used...

It is a wallstreet the same as mine. G3 266. OSX 10.1.5 installed without problem and it was faster than OS9. That is why I wanted to install Jaguar. If your wallstreet is stock you should be OK. I think the problem I am having is my memory upgrade. Search this fourm for powerbook g3...

No it is a Wallstreet G3 and it is supported. The problem here is I have found at least two other people with the same setup as mine that have gotten Jaguar to install. The other thing is some people have taken out the upgraded memory and put back the orig 64 Meg of ram and have installed...

The first g3 powerbooks were code named Kanga. They had a more restrictive configuration than there Wallstreet brothers that came out a few months later. It these orig G3 powerbooks that are not supported by Jaguar. Mine the wallstreet is supported but obiviously not with non Apple hardware...

OK here is the latest. I finally got Apple on the line. Their offical position on the issure is that Jaguar will not support some third party hardware such as the 20 Gig IBM travelstar hardrive I installed of the the two 256 Meg memory chips I installed. They are sure if I put the original 64...

I can not get Jaguar to install on my powerbook g3 266 which on the box it states that should. I tried four times have been all over the net looking for a fix. Did I mention I payed $129 for this pleasure. 10.1.5 worked well on my powerbook. I called Apple today and was told that 20 Gig...

I thought the same thing except in my case the screen does not blank out. Here is what happened with 20 min to go in the four installs I did: 1. Dialog Instal box fades to background color. 2. Dialog box fades to a large diamond object on the screen. 3. Screen turned black with two half...

I should have plenty of disk space. I have a 5 gig partition for OSX. When it started the install it said there was plenty of space. I tried to install over the 10.1.5 space. Out of frustration I erased the OSX parition and that did not help. I will try the ufs trick and report back. This...

I found this link on the net, but I can't find the article on mac fixit. MacFixIt: Troubleshooting for Mac OS X and OS 9 ... Several readers have reported problems installing Jaguar ... with a proper 'Select Destination' screen at that stage in the 10.2 ... The installer stays blank with no...
