[Ti] Upgraded Hard Drive in Big Al - problems

[Photios Dumont]

Hmmm,

This is interesting, as I never thought it could be with the System software
DVD, which is what I used. I'm going to try a couple of tests. Now that the
80 GB is sitting safely in an external firewire enclosure, I'm going to boot
up with it and see if it gives me the same troubles. Then, I'll format it
and try and use carbon copy cloner on it to see if I can get it to work
properly.

Steve - did you experience the same kernel panic that I'm getting whenever I
log out or restart? I don't recall you mentioning this in any of your
preveious posts.

Thanks,

Photios
