  • using iBook as an ext HD

    Hi,

    I often use my iBook (9.1) as an external HD via firewire to a desktop G4 (9.1) by
    pressing 't' at startup of the iBook. I now have the 12" pBook and am wondering if I can
    use the same iBook as an ext HD to the new pBook (10.2). Is this OK?

    TIA,
    Mike

    I don't see why not. We connect iBook to iBook as firewire target disks
    all the time.
