i've installed 10.3 on a stock b/w G3 400. it is amazingly fast.

only drawback: half of my volumes dont show up.

my setup:
PRI-MAS 8gb ATA partitioned to 7gb/1gb.
PRI-SLA 6gb ATA partitioned to 3gb/3gb.

the master 7gb partition has os9.2.2 installed on it. recently i installed 10.3 onto the first of the 3GB partitions on the slave. (X hadnt been installed on this machine previously)

osx 10.3 now boots fine. but, only the two 3gb partitions are visible in the finder. in order to even boot back into os9 i have to boot from an os9 CD (where the master partitions are now visible) and choose the os9 partition as the startup disk.

i've read thru a couple of documents: one states that volume names may not begin with a '.' (period). neither of the master voumes do. another document illustrates the reverse problem--osx volumes not showing up in os9 because the drivers are not loaded.

im stumped. any ideas?
if it aint' broke, break it.
