Hi OJ,

I am sorry I did not attach the exact error message.  I did not have
computer access at the time.

Here comes the exact error message:

-- begin: error message --

The firmware refused to boot from the selcted volume. Note that external
hard drives are not well-supported by Apple's firmware for legacy OS
booting.
