And, just to top off the ironic-meter: the Linux box? It's a quad-socket, dual-core-per-socket, Itanium system, with 16 GB of RAM. This monstrosity has the same L1 cache as the M…
Wow. Just wow.
Congrats, man!
If I may be so bold as to ask, how did you do this, electrically speaking, and was any special configuration required on the linux end to make it ac…

When I installed Tiger I unticked that box because I thought 'I won't need Classic", hence my problem.
I think that's why I'm going to have to reinstall everything before I can up…
Alright. The definition may be stretching it, but I just successfully got my M0001 to browse to the 68kmla!
Then I discovered that the 128's keyboard, with it's missing arrow key…

Oh, okay. What I meant by "touching" was what to hold while rotating the yoke. Because he was asking what was "safe" to handle. If this is not the best thing to do. Thanks for warn…

BTW, the yoke doesn't carry high voltage, so it's safe to touch the coils if you have to to break it loose. Or since you know you're going to rotate it anyway, loosen the clamp and…

Is there a certain reason you want Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X to be on separate partitions? Installing Mac OS 9 on the same partition would be the easiest way.
Sounds like you shouldn'…
I use option-8, the "bullet" and it works great for what you're doing.

If you'd consider getting a newer LCD and using a Mac -> VGA adapter, a display with 1280x960 native resolution will produce a superb, unbelievably sharp image when set to 6…

Well systemrescue has always worked better than iPartition for me.
I have a feeling that you will have to wipe the drive, though installing OS9 from another computer could work!
Congrats! The 5300c screens I once had were not quite as sturdy as the cs's, but that may just have been my bad luck. They are nice little machines and I agree, 8.1 is a good OS fo…

What do you suppose usually flows through copper wiring?

Thanks, downloading SystemRescueCD PPC now in hopes, but I already have iPartition which has probably achieved all I can do in that direction.
My partitionng is already done, it's…
