how does one boot up from a cd-rom drive on a mac g3?
lymber1 asked:
i know i need to upgrade the machine, but until i do i can’t get the mac to boot up from the cd-rom even when there is a bootable disk..
i have tried holdin down the “c” key but that did not owrk then i tried a couple of times “ctrl-option-shift-delete”
but that did not worked either… i even swapped the cd drive with a known working aopple cd rom drive……just for those who are curious i am installing xubuntu 6.10 or ubuntu for mac 6.06
i know that these os work on a mac cauase i have done it before but i for some reason cannot get this one to work…. it only wants to boot to the harddrive.
