It's a customized 6.0.8 bootdisk I made. The 6.0.8 folder on that disk is from 6.0.8 Disk 1. I will try other disks though. Thanks!

YES! *does a backflip* Thanks so much! Are you sure it'll be compatible with the extra PCI slot and all? Click to expand... Well no...You'd have to swap the PCI risers. The 55…

a number of the OS 9 bootable MDDs have 167mhz bus speeds and DDR RAM and ATA 100. Having a faster processor on a slow bus is limiting. Click to expand... None of the Prozesso…

why you want an os 9 only machine is beyond me but the last os 9 capabel machien apple offerd was the 2003 reintroduction of the 1,25 dual G4 MDD

I doubt very much that a single thin piece of metal can absorb and dissipate heat in any meaningful way to actually maintain or reduce temperatures. Larry Pina's Macintosh Repair &…

Yes. The 54xx/55xx boards and their 6xxxx counterparts are interchangeable.

tape over the hole without the sliding bit of plastic and repeatedly reinitialize until golden brown. Click to expand... Ehh Really in terms of color?! or is this just a metaph…

I just realized there is another theme! Its kinda nice!

OK, I'll downgrade My IIcis fDD rarely formats my FD's correctly. It just says "Initialization failed" or "Initialaziton Failed because the disk is defective." HopeFully System 6…

sys7 wont work. it has a differant format window you might have to try a bunch of disks fefore it works.

6.0.8 works. i'll check sys 7

i forget if it will work with system 6 or not. i'll check.

Would 7.5.1 work or not. Probably not. I'll have to downgrade my IIci to 6.0.4 that came with it.

iirc, for a 400k floppy (not as reliable as with an 800k.400k one) take a 1.4 meg floppy and tape over the hole without the slidey thing in it. stick it into an old mac (iirc, sy…

OK I got it and unboxed it. Works great. It has a REALLY nice CRT. Bright and everything. The light in the FDD is on and is red ooohh. No boot floppy for it yet. It is in very …

Mac128 is correct. Although HD and DD media have similar characteristics, they are not "the same media" that have simply been put through more stringent quality checks. There is in…

So it's either that the two read/write heads in the Plus's drive are misaligned, and so only the lower one works when it's alone (hence the 400ks being read but not the 800ks)...or…

Even with the Mac 128K Apple was installing heat sinks to help pull heat away from the delicate electronics and radiate it into the case where convective air would then exhaust it.…

I've never heard that any particular, fairly modern, OS can't utilize dual/multiple processors. NEVER believe (without checking multiple reliable sources) what you've "read at diff…

Sonnet lists an upgrade for the Mirrored Drive Door. Click to expand... Yes, but the 2nd processor can´t be used by OS 9. That´s what I read at different places. It will fit, i…

I peeked at the .TXT in your post, ~tl , but I'm still not clear on the "thumbnailing" process. Does it happen automagically when an image is beyond a certain size limit (as it app…
