Hi guys,
I am new here and I just bought my first Mac, an older PowerMac G4 AGP (400/1G/40G).
The only bigger issue is that I am not able to boot any other media than OSX one (burned DVD).
When I am trying to boot with Option key or CMD+OPT+F+O, screen stays blank (power saving on monitor).
What is working - booting OSX DVD from Startup disk or when the HDD is erased.
Not working - booting recognized OS9 CD from Startup disk, booting any other OS (NetBSD, OpenBSD, etc.).
Any ideass?
Thank you in advance.
