I'm afraid that my old Mac Mini G4 1.5GHz is slowly dying. It takes multiple attempts to make it boot to MOS 3.9. It makes a low tone beep and it doesn't boot.
I have managed to boot up a couple of times after several attempts. This gave me the opportunity to back up my Work partition and the most important configuration files in SYS.
Tomorrow (here in California), I will install MOS in a backup Mac Mini G4, silent update too; in fact exactly the same specs of the old one. I hope someone at support is around these days to help me to transfer my MOS key :)
After the holidays, I will bring my old Mac Mini to an Apple shop to see if it can be salvaged.
