Hi @Classicman sorry for necroing this thread but... I can't find anywhere any info about the PSU for the Sonic Systems microSCSI. I am assuming 5v but... which polarity? can you check yours and please let me know? thank you so much.
Hey @twelvetone12 sorry I lost track of time... but if you need to test some prototype, next time you are headed to Bologna just give me a sign and we can arrange a meeting with me and my Portable :)
Hi, I had a couple Jaz external drives (the green ones, 1 GB cartidge capacity) that I plugged in my Iici alternately, to play around and test them. The original PSU was included with one of them, so I could power up both, to discover that one was somehow faulty while accessing the cartridge...
aaaand it works! This was the perfect achievement for this last day of #Marchintosh 2024!
Totally zapped the SD card, went for a fresh install of 7.1 (thanks @Bolle for the hint), then first tried with the standard rom and Mode32 extension: everything worked (including ethernet which got me on...
So one month and so many attempts later, it really seems to be a ROMsimm compatibility issue... I tried two and both gave the same results, while original rom worked through the boot until the desktop with the control installed - at least on 7.01. With 7.5.3 I am still getting bus errors so I...
Hi and thanks again for all the support.
The icon at loading seems ok (not crossed over) but as I wrote, the next one appears just over it.
After the reinstall I never made it to have the control icon showing in the menu bar.
I am wondering if maybe something happened with the resource fork...
Here we go with some updates with MacOS 7.5.3:
having both the extension and control panel kind of does the trick regarding the freeze at load, meaning that everything is loaded at boot... IF the control panel is set to OFF - but then, even if I turn it on after, it doesnt seem to me that the...
Unpatching System and System 7.5 Update documents (reverting the byte value to 0003 instead of patched 0005 as shown here: https://vintageapple.org/gamba2/os8_se30.html ) hangs 7.5.3 at boot with ROM Simm installed.
Thanks I am doing it tonight!
EDIT:
I forgot to mention, this was done to install a ROMSimm allowing me to use the 8MB of RAM installed in this SE/30 - so maybe this is causing some trouble? Now that I recall correctly, the patch was maybe needed to help the ROMSimm get along with the...
Hi everybody,
I have had the fantastic @Bolle set of slot expander + ethernet bracket + Carrera 040 clone in my SE30 for a while and everything was perfect.
I had to reinstall System and I wasn't able to find the old Carrera SE30 control - and if I use the newer one (v.1.8) it hangs at boot on...
