Ok, managed to get a good install, and it's working well enough for VCF. That was a fiasco

Wondering if anyone happens to have a working Apple Network Server with AIX loaded who might be able to send me an image of the hard drive. I have an ANS 500/132 and I'm having endless issues getting AIX installed on it after the drive failed. I'm hoping to have it at VCF East in a couple weeks...

Hmm, I'll check that out. It appears to be a 30 day trial though, I don't know if I can get around that

So I got a copy of Pacerterm, it lets Macs emulate VT102 and VT320 terminals, and I'd very much like to use it, but my disks are completely toast and I can't seem to find it online. Does anyone happen to have a copy and could sell it or send me disk images?

Huh, ok. Never heard of that brand before. That really is a LOT of switches lol

What's that? I have that xlr8 machspeed g3 that's got 12 switches that didn't work so I dunno

Hey, any g3 is better than a 603! I'd definitely be interested if you wouldn't mind letting it go, maybe I could trade one of these other accelerators if you want

Well, looks like something I did ended up working, and it now works just fine with usb. Copied over some files, planning on copying Fallout as a stress test to make sure it's good. But now the 6500 is acting up and crashing lol. What I ended up doing is copying the usb extensions off the 9.2.2...

I just really like this thing, but I want it to be a bit more. Already threw a voodoo 2 and an ssd in there, so why not an accelerator too?

Yeah, I mean I've tried several cards and drives, but I've pulled the card out of my 6500 and tried the same combination in this machine

I mean, I might be able to, but wouldn't be worth it cause even a low end g3 accelerator will be significantly faster I think. I'll probably see if I can sell one of the accelerators I have now and buy one of those Sonnet L2 accelerators. I do have one already, but it's in my ridiculously...

On my 6500 I've managed to do several gigabytes over usb 1.0. It was pretty painful to wait for it, but worked just fine. I think I copied a full install of Fallout and Quake 3 and it took like 3 hours but it didn't give me any issues. Copied it onto a Samsung ssd with a usb 3.0 adapter no less!

Well, guess I'm stuck with the stock cpu then...

Yeah, I knew usb support wouldn't be great, but I managed to get it working on every other machine I've had, including a bunch of clones. Gotta be a way to make it work. There is another board actually, the later Kansas one, that might have some differences

Looks like I have the Tsunami board in my machine, and it does have a rom in the slot, I wonder if taking that rom out or swapping the board would change anything?
