I've got a beige G3mt Rev 2 MB When trying to install OS X 10.2 I get the first partition must be 8gb or smaller error message. No matter what size I set the first partition to is still give me the error. I've also tried installing to the stock 8gb hard drive that came with the system and still get the same error. Anyone have any suggestions?
