I recently pushed my G3's processor form 400 mhz to 450 mhz. After playing around with the machine, I booted OS 10.4. Worked fine, whenever I installed a new program, boom. I got a message saying to shutdown or restart my machine. This kept happening. So, I moved my processor down to 400 mhz again. I boot OS 10.4, after the apple logo and loading icon disappear, it shows that loading icon again with a blue background, I don't know what it's doing??? Can someone please help. If you got info, tell me. Thank you.

Well your first problem was a kernel panic. It sounds to me like you may want to check your harware with something like TechTool Pro. I was having similar with my B&W when my processor was going bad, but also had some RAM going bad. If its possible start up off your 10.4 CD and repair permissions, if that doesn't fix your problem, then i would suggest a re-install of the OS. Usually if you overclock a processor too far, the machine simply won't boot at all.
It works fine now, I don't know what went wrong, works at 450 mhz. It stopped doing the screen thing.
is booting from the cd the only way to repair the boot drive permissions? my albook has had kernel panic as well. only with 10.4 have i ever seen it.
