Quantum HD from PB read-only?
I've searched but cannot find, so here goes. I have a Quantum Daytona 127 Mb disk from a working Powerbook. I have installed it in an external USB enclosure so I can connect to my MacMini and extract a few old files. I also thought to take the opportunity to transfer a bit more legacy software, already downloaded on to my Mini, down to the Quantum HD. However, it won't accept Writes and GetInfo shows it as Read-Only. Oddly, Disk Utility sees it correctly, will identify it as HFS, and identifies it as Read-Write! The only operation Disk utilities will carry out is verify, and it verifies fine, but it won't let me change permissions, which I guess is what I need. I'd like to solve this before I attempt the awful job of putting it back in its case. I already tried changing the jumper between Master & Slave, not that I thought I needed it, but just in case. Any ideas please?
PowerBook, Mac OS 8.6 or Earlier
