G3 6100 and Linux — #1
Hello, I have a Sonnet G3 upgrade in my 6100.
Without this card, MkLinux works. However, this card doesn't support MKLinux. I have asked Sonnet many times about this, and I always …

The problem is the NuBus slot in your 6100. I have a NEWER 210 G3 in mine and face the same problem. There are not many NuBus machines out there, comparatively speaking. In the …

I too have the NEWERtech 210 G3 upgrade in my 6116 PPC Performa. It's been a real system saver - until I boot into Linux. I read somewhere that you could change the type/creator of…

I *THINK* you need to install Linux WITH the card in the slot and WITH it active. If you install Linux with the card inactive, and then activate the card, it might screw up the har…

Hard Disk Error — #1
I have two "dead" hard drives that I think could be rescued. They do not mount but are recongnized as a drive on the SCSI chain. When I try to format them I get a "device not rea…
Hard Disk Error — #2
Is it possible your SCSI card is third party (in which case you wouldn't want to use Apple SCSI tools and need to download updated drivers and formatting tools from the manufacture…

I can't do anything to the drives without getting that error. When I try to updade the drivers, initialize or mount them I get a "device not ready error." I am still convinced th…

The prices are really coming down on the G3 PBs now that the new PB 101 will soon be here with Firewire & USB ports. Will new be fairly "bleeding edge", or should I buy instead…
Buy G3 Powerbook OR Wait for new 101??? — #2
pkalaska,
I'm in exactly the same position as you. I'm going to wait until the 101's are launched just to see what they are like. Unless the are really great or very competitively…
Buy G3 Powerbook OR Wait for new 101??? — #3
There are three questions you should ask yourself:
1] Does it do what I need?
2] Can I afford it?
3] Will it provide some value before the product line changes again?
I'm not buy…

ORB vs. Jaz — #1
I've been looking into purchasing some kind of big (capacity) removable media drive for backing up high-res scans, updaters, and so on.
I had planned to go with a Jaz drive, but a…
ORB vs. Jaz — #2
Neither! Orb and Jaz are both based on Magnetic media. Both are subject to head crashes, and both have trouble with dust enterring the drive. If you need a format that reads …
ORB vs. Jaz — #3
Just a quick thank you for your input on this... it's strange how much more difficult the decision gets once it's your money and not your employer's. ;^)
But to counter a couple o…
ORB vs. Jaz — #4
I understand that magnetic media drives like the Jazz and ORB are prone to head crashes and dust problems.
However, I want to be able to store large media files (AvidCinema and ma…
ORB vs. Jaz — #5
We have had too many problems with ORB to recommend it. We too back up large M100 files and writing seemed to work but copying a file BACK from the ORB was a crap-shoot.
We also …
ORB vs. Jaz — #6
I have had a Jaz drive for two years and only had one bad disk problem (Iomega replaced the disk free). I purchased an Orb SCSI drive thinking I could replace the Jaz.
