    Drive imaging software for Mac OS 7/8?

    Thanks, ShrinkWrap works!!! Using Disk Copy 6.3 format and the "copy unused block" options it does exactly what I'd hoped. Unfortunately it also allows writing to the drive that's being imaged, so when I thought I was saving to the desktop of my boot drive I was actually overwriting the drive I...

    Drive imaging software for Mac OS 7/8?

    HI everyone, I'm posting because I've been trying unsuccessfully for a few hours now to make a block-level disk image of an 80 MB Conner SCSI hard drive from an old Classic and I can't for the life of me find any software that seems to allow this. Does anyone know of anything like this...

    MacIPgw VM 3.0 | TCP/IP over LocalTalk gateway

    Make that 80%! I've actually been thinking about picking up an RPi or C.H.I.P. or something similar as a combined Wi-Fi bridge/network storage/ssh server for my Quadra 700 for a while now, so I'm very happy to see someone having made significant progress on this front.  In terms of features, is...

    MinnowBook 3400c

    I've actually thought about how someone might go about this after seeing some seriously impressive iMac G4 hackintoshes (logic board swapped with Intel NUC, custom LVDS to DVI adapter for the display) on various forums. Seems to me the best way of going about this would be using an NUC or...

    Use PowerPC for a week?

    For those talking about YouTube performance on PowerPC, have any of you tried ClickToFlash with the latest Leopard-Webkit release? It allows direct playback of h.264 video natively when available, bypassing flash and poorly-optimized HTML5 players completely. I've had very good luck with it on...
