I have six kind of Mac G4 but only one booted Morph Os and in very bad way. It stalls every moment especially when i try to install it on hd.
The other Mac freeze at startup with message "console failed".
Anyone can help me?
Thanks

I think a bit more verbose information would be required to help in this case. For a starter: What are the precise configurations. Are the drives jumpered correctly (better avoid cable select an d do a proper master/slave selection, do you use 80 wire cables?
What are your gafx cards (no NVidia )?
What about the processors? Some models (there are issues with 7450/1 processors).

btw.:welcome to this forum.

I had to try three different DVD drives/writers in my Quicksilver before I found one that would boot and load the CDR I'd burned from the iso, which makes no sense as all three drives work under OSX and Ubuntu.
Keep trying. It may not be the computer itself (as long as its an AGP Powermac with a supported video card). Like my problem, it may only be one component that fails to work under MOS
