    Abaton Multitalk

    Does anyone have, or know about the Abaton Multitalk? I was going through the TIL articles and found: TIL04140: MultiTalk: No Longer Available for AppleTalk Network MultiTalk lets AppleTalk network users share serial devices. It has four mini-circular-8 connectors: one for AppleTalk (RS-422)...

    APS 5pin mini-din power brick replacement?

    Finally found one in an ebay listing that gave the non-branded model number: ITE e230076, hopefully this time I receive the right thing.

    APS 5pin mini-din power brick replacement?

    Having difficulty finding this, plenty of adapters with the GRD and +5volt pins flipped from what you have. I thought I had found what I needed on amazon, the icon in the product pictures was correct, but when it arrived the actual product had the icon below.... Trying to figure out the right...

    LC 630 DOS + OS 8.1 = PC SETUP will not load

    On further testing this is not a 100% solution (wiped volume), sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. My plan now is to setup an basic 8.1 installation on my 32GB CF card and create an image of that card for myself, and others if they want it. For whatever reason a 100% working approach for...

    Performa 630 and Similar AV Cards

    Found a potential match for the 820-0745-A in the Parts DB on the Service Source 1997-10 Main CD. Part number 661-1181 for a 60pin dual-line card.

    Performa 630 and Similar AV Cards

    I have the later card 820-0745-A from 1995 with a 60 pin connector that I'm trying to find information about. I also have the 820-0567-A card from 1994. So far all I've found is mention of the 661-0159 being replaced by the 661-1073 card on page 80 of the Apple Service Guide Volume 4.

    LC 630 DOS + OS 8.1 = PC SETUP will not load

    Success! @AndiS, @360alaska, @jeremywork Just did a test, did a full erase (erase, plus Burn 2.5) of a volume that previously had a non-working installation of 8.1 + PCsetup, then a new install.... PCsetup worked! Erased the volume Ran Burn 2.5 on the volume (Burn 2.5 is also on my System 7.5.5...

    LC 630 DOS + OS 8.1 = PC SETUP will not load

    So I was playing with this again using @jeremywork's image as a starting point. I've discovered something odd: If I copy the working system folder from jeremy's image to a "new" blank drive image it works, but if I copy the system folder from jeremy's image to a drive image that previously had...

    Adding 8 slots to my Compact Mac

    Looks like the company also made a PCI to Nubus bridge, and there was a requirement for 32-bit clean applications. The closest thing I found to a technical note so far is: 7.2.1.4 PAL DEVICE. A 16L8 PAL is used to generate chip select signals to the DDLC and '374 address expansion register. The...

    Good to know, I'll need to add a note to my site. Most of these modern options have Mac Plus specific settings

    TashTwenty: Single-Chip DCD (Hard Disk 20) Interface

    Ah, thanks. I can work with that, it would be similar to how I had to do a RAW write to an SD for SCSI2SD, or the partition setup option for the MacSD

    TashTwenty: Single-Chip DCD (Hard Disk 20) Interface

    Try https://www.savagetaylor.com/wp-content/uploads/68k_Macintosh/Bootdisks/320_32MB_volume.zip. I initialized it on my Plus, and was able to boot using my FloppyEMU, what I don't know is if that added the MBR

    TashTwenty: Single-Chip DCD (Hard Disk 20) Interface

    Ah, if I remember correctly I initialized them on my Plus, I thought that would add the MBR. Will check

    TashTwenty: Single-Chip DCD (Hard Disk 20) Interface

    The System 3.2 and 4.1 images I created for the FloppyEMU should work without modification I just got a Mac 512k to experiment with

    Anyone have a copy of "AppleTalk Phase 2 Protocol Specification" (C0144LL/A)?

    So no luck on the document so far, but Alan Oppenheimer did respond "I have lots of other documents, and if I ever retire, maybe I'll organize them (I gave a bunch to Stanford many years ago too). Right now I'm way too busy (big intro next month; see artauthority.museum). It would be fun to have...

    StuffIt Expander 5.5 super slow on an SE/30?

    Ditto, I do most of my setup using an emulator like Basilisk II and then just copy everything to my 68k macs, either over the network, or by editing the contents of a single volume drive image on an SD card that I then use with my ZuluSCSI, BlueSCSI or MacSD adapter.

    Macintosh Plus 4MB - Installing DaynaPORT Drivers under System 7.5.5

    I have guides on my site on how to update to the full version, typically I use Basilisk II to do the update using Apple’s Legacy Software Recovery CD from the Internet Archive as the source of the update files. Because you have the PiSCSI, you may be able to put the Legacy CD image directly on...

    Macintosh Plus 4MB - Installing DaynaPORT Drivers under System 7.5.5

    This is Steve from SavageTaylor.com Did you update my image to the full version of 7.5.5? I have an actual Asanté device that I use and it needed the full version of the system installed to work properly. I have a guide for the Plus and 6.0.8 on my site. I hope to experiment with the piSCSI...
