Use Caution
Authored by: webbix on Jan 17, '04 11:13:22PM

That helps explain some things for me (maybe). I wondered why I could not boot from my external FW drives. I BU using psync and usually reboot from the external to make sure it is working. It has not. I have a couple of different FW drives so I thought that may be it. I need to 'undo' the fix; applied via command line on my TiBook but with 'SpeedStart' on my Cube and iBook (could not find the source of the original fix even with Google).

I was beginning to think that Apple had replaced booting from external in 10.3 with the diskutility 'restore' option after booting from Installer. I had not had a chance to check the Apple site to verify. One peculiar thing though, I could not boot my 10.2.8 iBook with the 10.3 BU either so maybe it is affected on the BU volume also. Anyone have any clarification or am I on the right track?
