I wouldn't be able to turn it into anything server-y as my isp has 1 ip for _everyone_ on each tower, so no incoming connections.

Really the thing is that I don't have a bloody clue how you make a floppy disk drive work. So I think I need to expand my search to floppy disks in general and then focus on the Ma…

do you have an oscilloscope?

Wonderful blast to the past. Sounds like a stealth recon mission. GOOD JOB!

I took a look at Inside Macintosh. It did some useful information, but it mostly described the software interface to the disk controller. I am looking for information on the interf…

well most of my movies are just burned dvd's so it wont not need the decoder, and i think its on the dvd drive, if im not mistaken, I have herd of put squares of a disk under the …

Well, it looks like my card is installed. The driver disk has MacTCP on it, and I installed that. But, in the Network control panel, there is only EtherTALK, not ethernet. Do I …

I thought you couldn't share a CD drive over Appletalk. If not, I suppose you could image it to the other machine's hard drive.

So I really have no idea what data and commands the drive expects. So really if I could figure out how any floppy works that would be a good start. Click to expand... Click …

My Q605 running NetBSD does take about 45 seconds to pop out SSH keys. However, it has a 25MHz full '040, so ... Click to expand... Which ssh keys are these? When you first gen…

I had a lot of difficulty trying to install NetBSD on my 7300 with OF 1.0.5. I'd get it to boot the kernel and then the machine would reboot. It would do it so fast I couldn't see …

I love red PCB's. Click to expand... I love 'em too! I've got a beautiful red Half-Length Radius NuBus VidCard in my MinimalistDuo230/PB100TestbedDock™.

EvilTim's other projects. Click to expand... IIRC he also converted a monochrome CRT to greyscale by feeding the intensity level into where the brightness knob used to be. Cli…

Just joined here after acquiring my IIci. Click to expand... Because before, you wouldn't have been allowed. ;D

The IIci is a great little machine. I set mine up with the Apple Portrait Display on top, like I saw a MiniII setup in a movie, and listed her on my network as "WordWright." Defini…

I don't have any, sorry bizzle. Best to ask MacJunky More likely to find a FW->USB converter. I think the MiniStack drive has this feature. System Requirem…

Yeah, those are nice to find when you can. I've found one or two here and there as well.

There's no USB2.0 support under OS 9. I'm not sure of the situation with SATA cards, but a little searching would probably turn up something. Try xlr8yourmac and the apple suppor…

Yeah I've never interfaced to any sort of storage device before. So I really have no idea what data and commands the drive expects. So really if I could figure out how any floppy …

Google gets it wrong. According to their 20 Year Usenet Timeline, the first post mentioning Macintosh and Lisa was made on August, 1982. In fact, the earliest post mentioning Maci…

My goal is a device which is plug compatible with the Apple external 400KB floppy drive. It will store images on some sort of modern storage medium. Click to expand... Thanks f…

This is probably a really good place to start. This device has insufficient memory capacity to replace a Mac drive, but that's just a detail. The unit supports emulating an Apple …
