Here is what I want to do.

I want to install Jaguar on an external firewire drive, the drive is a
Buffalo 60g HFS+ formatted.

1. Is this possible?
2. If yes, is there a tutorial on line for me to read?
3. If no, what other options do I have?

Thanks
Bill

it should just work, have you tried and failed?
the drive should show up as a choise of destination during the installation.If for some reason it doesn't then format it with apple's disk utility and try again, or clone your current jag installation to it with carbon copy cloner.
hmmm...if i was posting this in safari i could spell check it!
