I just added a 1TB My Book drive to the stack of 'em on my AirPort Extreme Base Station. Since you can now use TM on those volumes, I wanted to do the backups over the network.

Well after more than a day of my C2D MacBook Pro doing the initial backup, I'm trying to get a G5 iMac to do the same, but I'm having issues. I tried setting both to back up at first, but the iMac had problems. So I waited. After the MBP was done, I actually got the iMac going. But then I needed to restart the AEBS. After that, I have had no success getting it started. It just says "delayed" in the Time Machine icon on the status bar. I have restarted the computer with no luck.

So at this point, I'm just highly confused. I thought maybe someone else had a similar issue or knew that it was some PPC issue. Any help would be wonderful.
