Hi there,
My old Power Mac dual G5 (os 10.4.11) needs a disk repair and won't startup off the original install CD.
I've managed to startup in terminal mode and hooked it up via firewire to an old MacBook Pro (os 10.6.8). So I'm currently backing up some folders that way to an external drive.
The MacBook Pro won't run disk utility from the Power Mac install disk.
Is the disk utility 'repair disk' function from the MacBook Pro os 10.6.8 system safe to run on my Power Mac os 10.4.11 startup disk?? If not, what other options to I have?
