running g4/400 agp [tonnes of ram and drive space]

i had a system crash running OS X 10.2. reformatted my hard drive. now only 9.1 will install.

9.2.1 will not; 10.1 will not; 10.2 will not. When i try installing 10.1 or 10.2 either the installer quits somewhere through the first cd, or the first cd says it has installed but the system crashes when it reboots for the second cd.

i though i read something about this problem somewhere, but can not remember if i did, where, or if it is wishful imagining.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Did you re-format your drive as hfs instead of hfs+ ?

That could possibly account for it. Does anybody know if 9.2 and 10 require hfs+ filesystem?
