how did you manage that :?:

Never mind... Google is my friend. ) It's a SCSI, so now what? I would hate to buy a SCSI card for a drive that has been dormant for nearly ten years. :-/

I have a dead LC II. I'd like to see if the hard drive is still good and if possible, copy any data off of it. However, the connector is most definitely not IDE as it has about 1/3…

Thanks - turned out to be the thermal paste on the CPU. Bought some. Applied it. And then it blew up! So I'm consigning it to the great scrapyard in the sky xx(

The AppleDesign speakers are great. I actually use mine on my stereo, not a computer. Welcome to the board!!! Did you get your user name from the office assistant found in Office …

What would you even do with 512MB in a Quadra? Click to expand... I think it'd be pretty much like beachycove said -- you'd do it just to say you did. If I ever come across…

Double -o parameters. -o rw,loop

The MaxxBoxx could do SMP if I recall. It would appear that Everymac agrees with me on this. They were sold primarily in Germany same as the system referenced by the OP.

What would you even do with 512MB in a Quadra? Would it be possible to install the OS to a RAM disk assuming you never shut the machine down? You'd have to reboot to use the OS fr…

Asanté FiendlyNet Click to expand... Is that for running networking daemons? Click to expand... Heh, well I hadn't thought of that for my 6100. But who knows? Con…

I have never used anywhere near 128MB running OS 8.1 and apps that run on a 68K. The extra RAM is just for bragging I guess.

The thing would take an aeon to start up Click to expand... An excellent point -- something I too often forget about 68k machines is the RAM check at startup.

Yeah. Without a working PRAM battery my PowerMac 6100 does the same thing. I actually have to press the power button twice in order for it to work. Then it will reboot itself and s…

The PRAM battery is definitely NO good. I am going to replace it and see what happens. Thanks.

2nd on the pram battery

It IS possible to use the Classic version of IPNetRouter on a 68k machine. I had made a little DNS and mail server with a LC III once. Just put a Ethernet card in there, get it all…

I seem to remember some of the Woz editions shipped with ROM 01 boards. It looks like mine certainly did. Also, are there any real hardware differences between ROM 00 and 01 machin…

Is the PRAM battery good? JB

Is the Color Classic 32-bit clean?

Instead, try: Code: $ sudo mount -o rw -t hfs ./hfs24M.DSK /mnt/mac -o loop -o rw sets the disk to be read/write -o ro sets the disk to be read only

If you use Safari, get ClickToFlash (http://rentzsch.github.com/clicktoflash/) - it has helped me immensely with the beachballs. Click to expand... Yes, that helps quite a bit…

"Or it could just be that your psu is a little low on one of the lines" - replace the power supply? Click to expand... or rebuild it

I acquired this baby a few weeks ago and it came with a stock CC logic board, 10 Meg of RAM, a 700 MB Qauntum drive, and an Asante PDS LC ethernet card in it. And it came with thi…

I got the same error. Remember that I'm using the Blanks floppy images.

Have you changed the RAM, hard disk or PDS card? Maybe something is drawing a little more power than before. Or it could just be that your psu is a little low on one of the lines.
