Wipe G4 for sale?

I have a Power Mac G4 with two hard drives and a CD/RW - everything works fine.

I'm especially a PC guy so a little confused by the modus operandum Mac...

I WANT to do is erase completely safe system but leave OS X Tiger running.

Y at - it a way of, for example, to remove the hard drive non - OS X, install a hard drive not formatted, format, then copy [Startup] OS X partition on the new, then all the rest nuke [that is, to remove the old drive, to initialize the newly formatted drive]?  In the PC world I could do but perhaps not here...

in view of the low value system, I won't have to worry about finding 9.2.2 disk, recommencer start again at zero, then build back up to Tiger.  not worth that trouble.

suggestions?

Looks like you could do this, or...

Open system preferences > accounts, unlock it, click the "smaller", make a new admin account, log on & into the new account.

In the same pref pane to highlight your old account, click on the less icon, then use to Secure Erase free space disk utility.

  • Imac for sale and can not reinstall OS without using my id

    I am preparing my old imac for sale and erased the hard disk by following the instructions, and I try to reinstall the factory operating system without having to use my apple i.d. but when I boot using R-command-option, I get the spinny globe and then the thing saying that he made the restoration of the internet, but then it gets to the screen white/grey apple and just gets stuck.  (For more than 2 hours, so STUCK).  Ideas?

    It may be interesting to create a flash drive with the installer of the OS, in this way, you don't need us the recovery partition or restore from the internet.

  • MozillaFirefoxStartPage this domain is for sale! When I go to my beloved Firefox is what I see.

    IKNOW there are some redirect there, freaky virus but I tried the best of the best scans and no one saw anything. I was told to try ESET online, I think it was, they found so much, I got rid of the desktop black and got my themes all back, but when I go to Firefox, I get a generic page saying ffstartpage and this domain is for sale and various ad things and looking for the man. After the crazy ESET run, as more than 5 hours, he has tried to force himself on me like yahoo, then back in, http://www.findingresult.com/?dn=mozillafirefoxstartpage.com & PID = 9POL8D55D. Somewhere spoke of the place to get information about themselves on the address bar, so I clicked and a fridge of info came, so I blocked everything that he and FF settings and options in internet. Now that information placed on the address under 'media' bar he registered the address cur.cursors-4u.net/smileys/smi-3/smi242.cur. () no idea why, just one thing FYI). Under "cookies" for today and I wasn't much at all and they are blocked, and he showed no cookie, he says he left the cookies with me 28 times. When I do a search timeanddate, it is said he finds nothing, and it's a joke, so I keep hitting to try again until it makes me qrobes stuff. Today, I got a black page saying server could not be found, like who is mozilla firefox? Guys, Im dyin here! It took me days to get to this place of observation, Im like nobody else got this shit but me? Please help me out if you can, or direct me to a worm/virus/malware company I can work with. Having trouble finding where I can explain in detail like that. Thank you so much for your time in reading this. Hope you can help! Oh, Windows 7 64-bit office. I ran: Emisoft anti-malware Malwarebytes, ThreatExpertMemory Scanner, Hitman Pro, SuperAntispyware Free, Rising Antivirus, Malwarebytes Antirootkit, removal of Virus from Sophos, ADW, tool Rkill, Malwarebytes Anti-exploit and own TrendMicro BrowserGuard, these last 2 run all the time now. They have been run one after that the other and some double in a period of 3 days. Sometimes, I do not SLEEP.

    Set your start page for Firefox that starts desired page or a blank page.

  • HP 61 cartridge: will an HP ink cartridge marked for sale in the work of the Australia in the USA

    I just bought a new combo pack in box of the HP 61 cartridge for my printer HP 4620 scanner. The problem is I bought them off eBay and when I opened the sidewalk I saw that the area, while the new, open and not expired, is marked for sale in Australia, New Zealand and South Pacific Islands only. I have not yet opened and could probably go back if they don't work, but it was in the hope that they would be. Can someone tell me if I will have to revisit the issue of whether they will work?

    Thank you

  • What is the average of 'for sale 1 open CR (s)"?

    Hi all

    I posted my app for sale, but the status says "for sale 1 open CR (s)".

    Which; average 'roomfor Ssali 1 open CR (s)'s? My app was sold in the world of blackberry?

    Thank you.

    This means that your application is on sale in the world of blackberry AND you have a change application's open request. To see a preview of what the change request is you can click on the nav bar item 'Change request Tickets' on supplier portal. To see if you have downloads, you can check your download reports. You won't see any downloads for the current day, but you can check for the current day by doing a 'regular report' that you will find in the download reports section.

  • Version approved but can't post for sale

    I have sent several messages to the provider to support, but have yet to receive an answer.
    Version 2.0 of "Dual Cam Photo" my application has been approved, but I don't see a link to "post for sale.
    I had a previous version that was not approved, and the only link I see in managing products is 'Send for review' which I think is related to the CPL(a) version.

    Please help me solve this problem and after the app for sale as soon as POSSIBLE.

    I don't like on the previous version (1.8) and it would be great if that could be removed, but the main issue I'm trying to solve is to display the approved Release 2.0 for sale. It is a free application... I want people just to be able to download and use!

    I managed to solve the problem after guess what needs to be done by reading other posts with similar questions, so here's a quick summary of how to fix things if you are in the same situation:
    -I have re-released the preliminary version (the version that was not approved)
    -I looked into "Change request tickets" for the new note that was created for re-presentation.
    -I added a note (copy - paste this same post explaining my problem)

    Within an hour, my new application was rejected again, and my trusted application was "posted for sale!

  • "Click the link"Post for sale.

    My first application was approved but I opeted fo the automatic "post for sale".

    The email that I received from BalckBerry said: click on the link "post for sale.

    No idea where it is? I looked everywhere in the portal and I can't locate it. I assumed it was in 'Manage products', but the only link I see allows me to apply for 'built fo BlackBerry'

    'Manage products' under the title of your application, you should be able to see a link to click "Post for sale". If you don't see it currently still give him a few hours to update before checking again,
