All seems ready for my second serious trial run with OS-X, it's strange that I'm installing it to run 9.2.2 in classic mode for X assisted USB 2.0 support . . . hopefully!

I haven't really done much on the Dual 1GHz QS'02 under 9.2.2, so I won't notice any performance hit due to running in classic mode. It should be a tad snappier than my ever faithful, now lamented Graphite Gift, the comatose G-4 466DA.

I got some strange results testing under the OS-X Hardware Test CD. I was right about the 512MB sticks from the DOA DA causing the shutdown almost immediately after a restart or hot boot, turns out that two of the three of them did that, but they passed the memory test without a problem. One of the QS'02's sticks failed the test, but never gave me a problem with booting. Now I've got 1GB of RAM, one stick from each box and a pile of three questionable sticks . . .

. . . go figure! :o)

Soon to do the re-install of the original OS-X/9.2.2 mix on the CDs that shipped with the Quicksilver 2002 . . .

. . . we'll see how that one goes, this has been one strange ride just getting to this point! ::)
