What do you go by on there, since I haven't seen Dog Cow as a name on any messages. Dean Click to expand... I don't post. I just read the news on my site. See this topic: view…

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out. I've seen you quite a few times on csa2 as well. UNIX on the Apple II is something that people have been talking about for over 20 years…

I had 4 hard drives in my Gigabit G4. As long as jumper settings are set. It works. Sure I had no optical drive, but it worked. Click to expand... That's nothing special. The R…

I don't think that it does. I just read the manual last evening, and it looks like it's a bunch of BASIC scripts all tied together. It does have a task scheduler, though. Click …

What is the difference with Rev 1 and 2 with respect to HDs? I have 2 Rev 2 units and both I think have a 1 single and 2 dual HD trays (for 5 total) plus the cdrom and zip drive ba…

I did that some time back. Used three 10gb drives raided. Wayne

The forum user Aoresteen had been also been able to do this in his Rev 1 B&W; he hasn't posted in a while though.

Yes, I've finally done it. I've had 2 drives running flawlessly in my 1st B&W G3 for many years now, so today I decided to try and get 3 running in my #2 G3. Specs are ve…

My 10.4 disk is kinda scratched so i will try and make an image from it and burn a fresh copy, try a brand new HDD and if i can a new DVD rom. Click to expand... Could also be …

Oh cool! Now does this just pretty much modify the NVRAM making it independent of the software once installed? Like i install it, turn it on, and i can swap out the hard drive with…

I'd try another IDE cable. Can you get the new HD to work off a single IDE chain on its own? JB Click to expand... I tried it piggy backed off the CD-ROM. I have tried a hand…

If you have say, a spare 6GB or something, install os x to that and then get OverDrive installed/turned on so you can then get drives bigger then 128GB in there. http://mac.profus…

I have tried all of that, the OEM one is set to cable selct, i tried that, i tried as a master and master single, master with legacy support, master with 15 heads instead of 16 (th…

Hi sp00nix, sounds to me like you've not set the correct master/slave jumper on the hard disk; this must be set otherwise the drive won't detect properly and screw with whatever e…

Hello again. This time i am trying to install a bigger HDD in my G4 tower. It came with a 10gb drive. I cannot get 10.4 to install on there with any other HDD other then the one i…

well that didn't work lol. It wasn't even recognized as being in a PCI slot

If i get a chance i will try after work and post my findings. I have a whole lot of different cards, some simple scsi, some RAID with 128MB ram, daughter cards, batteries, and heat…

As far as I know, no promise cards can be made bootable. Adaptec cards have a slight-chance of being made bootable. One of the main issues with flashing from PC to mac is the size…

Hmmm, the have ROM and RAM but i don't know if the MAC would read it right. They are Adaptec and Promise raid cards, maybe a re-flashing? I will have to play with it.

They may. But I don't think the G4 would boot from them. scratch that, I doubt it would. Mainly as there has to be a ROM on it. Howerver, since I had an Adaptec with a PC ROM on…
