I have the motherboard for a bondi blue 233 MHz iMac. I remember that this Mac cannot use a drive bigger than 6 GB for a start up disk. I remember trying to partion a larger drive …

Running OS X 10.4.11 for now, haven't got around to installing OS 9. Downside of using OS 9 is that my wi-fi network is inaccessible since I use WPA security. I'll find a work-arou…

I looked at the link to the PIOS. I think that the 604ev at 300 MHz statement and the dual processor statement are independent of each other. In other words, the PIOS comes with …
