I'm in the midst of upgrading my 3,5 Quicksilver dual 1Ghz. At this point I have 10.5 running on a SATA/PCI SSD and I'm getting ready to install a Sonnet 1.6 Ghz processor but I'm confused by Sonnet's install guide vs drivers on their support site.
The manual predates Tiger and wants 9.2 installed and running to patch/update the firmware to 4.2.8. The present Boot ROM on my machine is 4.3.3f2. I'm assuming that this ROM supersedes the former? If so, do I need to bother with 9.2 at all? Could I just run the 10.5 updater from Sonnet and then swap processors?
I've had this card for quite some time. It came with a CD for OS 9 and I'm guessing that at that time it needed to update the firmware to be aware of newer G4s?
