HI. First post here, looking for some advice.
I have an SE/30 I have recently saved. I've fully cleaned and recapped the logic board, and cleaned everything else. I'll get around to recapping the analog board/PSU at some point but everything seems stable.
I recently put in a BlueSCSI V2 and and I have also been able to successfully boot from a DB25 BlueSCSI.
The machine had 5mb ram that I had cobbled together by swapping Simms round from my other compact Macs, but I decided to upgrade so bought a 16mb purple Simm pack and a purple rom from Tindie.
It's all gone in ok but I can no longer boot from either internal or external SCSI, only floppy. once booted, the drives appear and are accessible, but when I tried to run HD Setup from the System & boot disk, it couldn't detect the drive. When I open about from finder, It does register all 16mb.
I'm thinking im doing something wrong here and it's due to it having 32-bit enabled, but I did try booting from a 6.0.8 floppy and that told me I was in 32-bit mode and I could change to 24-bit to boot, which worked, but when I tried booting from SCSI again, still didn't work.
Only things is swapping the old rom back in, with the new ram, and I haven't tried is a blank image on the BlueSCSI and an install from floppy. that's next.
Any advice would be welcome.
Thanks
