The trouble with that being that the LCIII requires a PLCC 68882.

(I think it was Mr. I just got an LC III)

Because there's one here: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270442756435

So the Quantum ProDrive EPS works? At least that's a Very Good Thing™.

And its installing 7.6!

Awesome! I managed to mount Fireball, my iMac's hard drive, on the LC III! Click to expand... Congrats! I guess I was wrong with my assumption. Still good to have the extension…

does the hard drive appear on the desktop as recognized?

nope. no os on it yet.

Wait, so does the Macintosh LC III work fine now? :O

nevermind. it started up finaly

file sharing won't start up. it has been sitting at the "File sharing is starting up..." screen for 15 minutes. this is a clean OS 9 install.

Make sure you have the appropriate network extension installed! Since your Ethernet card is an Apple one, you just need the Apple Ethernet LC extension which can be found here.

OK... i have OS 9.2.2 running on my imac. how can i get the iMac to appear in the chooser of the LC III, or connect to the iMac? I am running the 7.5 Network Access Disk.

Screw the keyboard - Timbuktu it. }

Yes, yes, you could.

Or you could just buy/find a keyboard. Head onto your local Freecycle and ask for an old ADB keyboard. Click to expand... ... Or i could just head onto Freecycle and ask for…
