I am working with a PowerBook G3 with 320 Mb RAM. It has MacOs 9.0.4 and MacOs
10.0.4 installed. I first inserted the external disk, when the computer was
running MacOs 10.0.4, the finder detected the unformatted disk, I created 2
partitions of about 26 Gb each, 1 for MacOs and the other for BSD, I then
removed the disk from the firewire port and when I tried to put it back,
neither MacOs 10.0.4 nor MacOs 9.0.4 was able to detect it (I used the option
key to select the appropriate MacOs when starting up). Am I missing anything?

Thank you very much.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
