I have it taken care of for now. It seems that I needed to hold down the shift button. Since this has two disks, I put Debian on the first and will use my old howto to setup the second disk. My sincerest apologies for not replying earlier. On the side note: I'm taking that the G4 933MHz is a 32 and not 64 bit Power architecture, yes? I haven't fired up the G3 in a while, I'm going to try to mod it first. Again, my sincerest apologies, Desmond.
