I am in the process of installing Mac OS X on my G3 MiniTower. I have installed it correctly before but I formatted the Hard Drive so I have to install OS X again. The computer has finished installing Disc 1 and it restarted automatically and now it is at a blank screen. The disc is spinning and the screen is blank. I have no idea what went wrong but, this has happened before. In past experiences after this happened the Hard Drive has some OS X folders and files on it but the system will not boot.

I don't know what to do now... I know I have to install disc 2 but I don't know how I'll be able to do that. Any ideas? I'll leave the Mac running, I won't touch it for now.

Thanks in advance.
