Here is my situation...
I believe I had bad sectors on my drive, and while halfway through reformatting, it crashed...
So now, when I boot to the HD, I get the prompt to insert the 2nd Install CD, but it never finishes (because it hits a bad sector). So I want to write Zeros to the drive. and thus I pop in the Tiger install disc...
With the Tiger install disc in my drive, I boot to it, but it gets to the blue screen and locks up.
So I can't finish the install with the original discs, I can't write zeros using a Tiger disc.
Any ideas? I was trying to reformat it using commands in Single-user mode, but my bashing needs some work
It is a 1.67Ghz Powerbook G4.
Thanks in advance!
