Has anybody run Paris from a firewire drive? Everything on one drive? I
want to say it can't be done, but I could be wrong.

Thanks

I have PARIS installed on it's own OS 9.2.2 boot drive with a reduced set of
extensions (anything not essential to running the OS or PARIS is disabled)
and I record to a WD 160 Gig external Firewire drive. I tested once and got
40 or so tracks running. For my needs I rarely go over 32 tracks, so I
figured I'm good to go. My system is very stable also. No complaints.

Dual 2 GHz G4 Quicksilver with 1 Gig of ram and dual 17" LCD's.

Hey Tony! I'm hip to all that, that's how I've run paris in the past. I'm
just wondering, is there a way to install Paris 3.0 on a FireWire drive and
get it to run. I'm thinking not, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Ah, misunderstood. I don't think so either. No positive though. Can you even
boot a Mac from a Firewire drive?
