[G4] installing OSX on external firewire

[Harry Freeman]

Greetings ( + )!( + )

Are you saying that when you start your QS from the Panther install  
disk, then select "Disk Utility" from the menu that the Disk Utility  
doesn't recognize the FW drive?

Or that the QS after booting into the installed OS doesn't see the FW  
Drive?

Are you sure that the FW drive is good?
