Older Sega programs provided for Developers are necessary for my use. I'm a content creator and software developer. These programs are only 68000 System 7 (with Kanji Talk) compatible, and also require Kanji Talk installed on System 7.
I'm also needing scsi to interface the target (Sega 32X CD). I'm actually confused here because typically it'd be better to virtualize a custom buffer through a system extension (or writing a Microsoft software WDM driver for Windows) and interfacing the target through PCI. Ethernet also seems more logical via hyperscsi or iscsi, or other protocol. These Sega programs recommend scsi but if possible I'd like to use a faster G5 with a PCI bridge adapter, but I still need System 7 compatibility.
Is the IBM PC Microsoft compatible Adaptec 29160N PCI card known to work (supposedly it does in open firmware) under MacOS 8-9-rhapsody?
Which PowerPC machine would give me the most compatibility with least amount of problems? Should I just use gnu toolchains under NextStep 3.3 on a 8086 machine?
Thanks
