    Radeon 7000 Flashing Woes

    I am not sitting in front of that machine right now, but yes I believe "Open ROM" is the wrong choice. Check the menus for something that offers to install a ROM into Multi Flasher. Once you do it you'll get two file pickers, and maybe also a warning dialog.

    Radeon 7000 Flashing Woes

    The Graphiccelerator UI is confusing. You need to pick a menu item to install the ROM, not open multiflasher. So double check that you’re actually getting the rom loaded into Multiflashsr

    Radeon 7000 Flashing Woes

    I have flashed two with Multiflasher on a G5 running Mac OS X. One a 32 MB PC card that already had a 128K rom chip, another one of those 64 MB ones that are on ebay for $25 or so. I had to put a bigger ROM chip on that last one, I got the part number from bbraun's radeon 7000 page.

    Radeon 7000 Flashing Woes

    I never had much success with the reduced ROMs. I bought some 128K rom chips and successfully replaced one on a 64 MB radeon 7000 a few weeks ago, and flashed the retail 226 ROM on it. I'm not running Mac OS X though. Looks just like the silver heatsink ones on the left side of your picture.

    OS9 Programming & UTF-8

    There is a very basic MacRoman <-> UTF-8 converter in one of my Marathon tools: https://github.com/treellama/atque/blob/master/ferro/macroman.cpp If your project is GPL you can use that directly. Depends on how much modern C++ support you have too, I suppose. If one or the other of those is...

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    In my case it was not an AppleTalk or AP issue, as I was only trying to use IP at the time. But, I could have been doing something wrong. If you get the Ethernet working, should be straightforward to switch the interface to the Wifi and try it!

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    I have had trouble getting bridge to work with the Raspberry Pi wifi, so YMMV. If you have trouble with it, try Ethernet before going too far debugging it.

    Mac OS 8.6 for (some) Unsupported G3s and G4s

    Interesting, I wonder if this would also work for firmware updated clamshells, which can no longer run stock 8.6

    TashRouter: An AppleTalk Router

    I now have tashrouter working as well. The writeup by @finkmac was helpful. In my case, netatalk is running in a VM. I was able to run tashrouter in a separate VM, but with libvirt getting one to start up before the other was tricky. So I ended up using the tap / bridge setup above directly on...

    Boot Pre-Firewire iMac G3 from USB Challenge.

    My pre-FW Clamshell (to my surprise, at the time) boots from a USB stick with 9.x on it. This is a relief as the CD-ROM barely functions so I have no other way to boot it without setting up a net boot server. I have not been able to get it to boot Mac OS X from USB however.

    ClassicGuyPhilly's Finds

    My AGP G4/400, one of the earliest ones, shipped with 9.0.4. You must have had to order the day they were announced to get 8.6!
