I can't get my Beige G3 upgraded to a G4 to install OS X. My HD is running off a sonnet HD ATA card in a pci slot. I went to there website and they said it's compatible upto 10.3. In the install window of OS X no hard drives are shown. I don't have any extra sitting around... Any fix?

    i'd call/email Sonnet first



    Nonetheless there is a utility hat will "trick" OSX into installing onto any hardware



    You can find it on versintracker. Sorry I cant remember the name of it..

    Yeah, I'm using Xpostfacto software. The OS install software just doesn't see the HD attached to the PCI Card
