Happy to provide the iso image to anyone that can provide an FTP server to copy it to... Also, don't mind answering any questions about the install / database create / etc... Not …

Sounds like the hard drive.

Holy crap that's a loud and scary noise! It's definitely a fan or a drive.

You're not kidding when you say "broken engine"... sounds like a spun bearing in a V6 engine. Diagnose it like a broken engine then. Open the case wide open, start the machine up …

I see nothing in the fan.

You've got something in the fan… I wouldn't worry that much, since you can hear the startup chime. What's going on, apart from the noise? Does the computer boot? A QUicksilver case…

8-o Did it eat your chips? ;D

Well, I was working in OS 9, it crashed and then I heard this horrid Mechanical Fail Noise. I unplugged it. I plug it back in, and it is the WORST failure sound I ever heard. htt…

Hi everyone around! I now have some time again to continue my quest for Softwindows-2-68k (if it exists). As I already said in above post, I want to try to contact one of the devel…

i have downloaded the files, but only the iso files, if anyone is interested send me an PM and i send you the link to my server. ;D

I am interested in downloading these, for archival purposes. Is anyone willing to seed them or put them on a FTP server?

Dammit, I was a day too late!!! Someone should seed this as a torrent. If they do, I'll set it up on my 'permanent seed' list.

Last chance on this. Going to pull my server offline in the morning. DL as much as you want or can overnight.

Thank you all. This is very helpful. The gist of it in my judgment is that the re-celling of a 2400c battery would be slightly speculative, but worth the price of speculation in t…

Best I can tell the controller boards are all custom but the heart of the intelligence is in chips that can be custom or commercial parts. The intelligent battery controller in th…

You might also want to search this forum for Wally's posts on this subject. He's done the most thorough experimentation and research of anyone I know. I'll briefly share my experie…

Oooh that is sweet about the Oracle Installation. I still have that disk for sale if anyone wants it.

A question has been troubling me of late. As many of us know, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find main batteries for the first PowerBooks taking Li-Ion batteries: the 24…

Thanks very much for these - was watching the oracle cd on ebay, and I was disappointed when it went. So, I'm now about to get an RDBMS on an A/UX SE/30. Imagine the time this is …

I've got A/UX 3.0, Oracle Server for A/UX, System 7 Golden Master release and System 7 beta for download. I sold them and want to share them before they sit on a shelf forever. I a…

Nope, I was using FireFox. In the future, I will use utilities to keep tabs on the disk.

Even if the file system was corrupted, you can still backup the data. This only means that the computer was having a hard time trying to find the necessary files it needed to acce…

It's hard to say what exactly caused your iBook's hard drive to stop responding, but I'd say it was a corrupt file system. Depending on how long it was that you used the system an…
