Hi you all.....
I'm having a very weird problem!
When i try to install OS X Server on my dual 1 gig QS the installer won't start if lauched from a mounted install-cd. Booting with "C"-pressed brings up a happy mac and a spinning cursor which freezes after a couple of seconds...I guess ± 30 or so. When i try to install on a 933 mhz QS everything goes smootly...installer lauches and a window with restart comes up. Both machines have this new superdrive updtae (i thought that was the cause...) The only diffrence is that the Dual mac had 3 partitions and was formatted with the Jaguar disks. Any idea how to solve this problem and what is causing it????
(I'm not going to win any prices with my english but I think you all under stand the message right?!)

Greetings from the south of the Nehterlands.....

I would guess that it might have something to do with the formatting of the drives. Make sure that they are formatted HFS+. I ran into some issues trying to use UFS.
If its already broken, how can I mess it up by trying to fix it?
