Where, oh where did you get Xubuntu Jaunty? I was using something way older than that... 7.04 or something shocking. 9.04 should not even be available?!?!
Luckily, I didn't have a drive bigger than 120GB. Believe it or not, you should have been able to format it from a WinBlows system using diskpart (with the extension id=af)
Anyways, glad to know you are up and running. That extra step about booting into OS9 and restoring the drivers is a MUST DO!
Hell, 120GB is enough for just about anything, and old IDE drives are cheap as chips now!
Best of luck with your install - I have dumped both my G3 and my iMac, and I am now experimenting with OSX86 on my AMD box. All is working except restart, and sleep when a USB printer is connected.
I think my next purchase will be a Mac Mini for the parents, as the WinXP box just confuses them! It is possible to install OSX86 onto this box, but very hard to get 8400GS video working right. I might give it another try shortly - before forking out AUS$1000+ for a Mini.
