Yep! That's an MMI drive. You are lucky you got one that was made just right. A lot of them had trouble with excess lubricant on the disk surface spinning to the outside edge where…
The .pkg"->ncu is new to me. I have used Packtype (and occasionally Packager) for years, but had never heard of the other utility. Thanks for the lead.
I just gave up and got out the 8100/80 instead, thinking that I'd post here the next day (which I've done).
Maybe someone else has a clue. I wonder if putting in the mis-matched R…
Also formatting floppies in OS X is a bit hit-and-miss. It won't do the part where it goes back and eliminates bad blocks. You also don't get the 100% same full capacity for some…
The thing about 8 GB is - theoretically you can install onto a single partition 120 GB drive using another Mac, then move it to the target Mac and it will boot. However, the instan…

JDW, is your Hyperdrive in running condition? If your Hyperdrive has an MMI or Miniscribe drive, it would be a miracle if it still spins.

I believe the SE/30, and IIx ROMs are identical.
Since the Mac II can be upgraded to FDHD, does that also upgrade it to the IIx ROM?
I know the SE/30 can use a IIfx and IIsi ROM.…
I think even if you are installing onto the first 8GB, thats not enough - as Mike said, the drive should be partitioned, with the first partition being no bigger than say, 7.7GB. I…
What a coincidence - I just put back together my 9500 yesterday, and got it up and running today.
I can tell you from experience that the 9500 is a real B**** when it comes to cra…

Even that may not be a hard requirement. Tiger 10.4.11 boots natively on m…
The name of the application you want is called, with the quote marks ".pkg"->NCU just as stated above, its drag and drop and works flawlessly. Its easily one of the greates…
Welcome to the world of Newton ... I have a 2100 sitting on my desk at home it gets the occasional use (criminal I know) I would probably use it more if my Powerbook 1400 was not b…
Cool conquest! I've always been curious about eMates, but one has never come my way at a reasonable price. I have a Message Pad 120 which I haven't gotten farther with than just ma…
It seems to me that since the original 128K and 512K can run BBS software to share e-mail and files via those old networks, and later, services like FidoNet allowed those dial-up n…

I got out the ole' Power Mac 9500 last evening and tried to start it up. No luck. Though the hard drive in it is fine and has OS 7.6 on it, it did not work. I got to the gray scree…
I did a search, but I couldn't really find the information I needed.
I don't really know a lot about video cards... bear with me.
I have a Sapphire Radeon 9600 Pro Atlantis card …

Well, there is a lil radius icon at the bottom when its loading. But right now I can't see anything as the internal video on my IIci does not want to cooperate with my Display and …
I re-tried the same procedure last night, but this time without the tinfoil on the GPU. After I'd left it a little while to cool down, I booted it up and the screen lit up straight…
