Since the Power Macintosh G4/466 has enough space for four hard drives, I decided to put a second one in the box. I set the second drive's jumpers to make it a "slave." Then I used an extra IDE cable as an "extension cable" so I could plug the second IDE input from the too-short motherboard cable into the second drive. I booted into Debian Etch, ran the GNOME Partition Editor to create an ext3 filesystem on the backup drive, then mounted it and did a few tests with rsync.
