The eMac 9.2.2 disc is a good one. The version I have has Mac OS ROM 10.1.1, which is one of the highest versions. I don't think any bootable, 9.2.2 install discs have the higher 1…

Congratulations on a hack well done, comrade! . . . you have a good plan in place for both fixes and you've earned you battle scars! :rambo: Why, in this day and age, do peo…
