Any idea what the board revs are? I feel like there’s a lot of reports lately about accelerators working in one board but not another and I’m wondering if there’s a specific trend to it.

It does not, in fact, set the duplex bit: This is taken from the Farallon Fast Ethernet FAQ. PN990 is the FastEtherTX-10/100 NuBus Card. As a knock against it, it also claims not to support autonegotiation. On the plus side, I have noted that the AsanteFAST has 128KiB of buffer, so it may...

At least for me, I seem to have gotten a fix down to the following: Start Mission Control Drag your disk to the left pane of the Mission Control window to mount it on the desktop Open the disk that appears on the desktop Drag DiskLink out of Control Panels Drag your disk back to the Rocket pane...

Mine started hanging on startup again, but while it's trying to mount disks at the desktop instead of at the grey screen. It was working yesterday, so I'm going to walk through the changes I made to see if I can track the incompatibility. It's possible it's related to your issue, if you still...

This is the only place ever seen a good set of key pictures, so I tried my hand at measuring the bitting pattern. I don't feel confident in the details of my first pass so I won't post my bitting guesses for now to avoid misleading. But they're definitely 4 position, and somewhere between 4 and...

It almost certainly will work across OS. The caveats have generally been: sometimes a newer OS needs a newer driver, sometimes a newer device needs a newer driver, always be mindful of the 4.3 boundary. There's a doc out there somewhere with the recommended drivers for different machines, but...

Agreed with the above. The later revisions are noticeably shorter and work in more machines.

Per the serial in your other post: Approximate Build Date: 1983-11-20 - 1983-11-26 Build Sequence: 1165 No question that's one of the earliest :). Wonder what the other serials are!

Neat! A GUI for hfsutils is quite handy and HFVExplorer only works on Windows. Does this support both unpartitioned (emulator) and partitioned disks? Building in pdisk as well to allow for advanced partitioning would really be a killer app for a drag-and-drop tool for ease of use. It's great...

I'm finally getting back around to trying to see why my Turbo 040 is intermittent in my SE/30, and this thread nearly matches my experience. I've got pretty much the same setup. I'm running Bolle's Combo card with a firmware 4.11 Turbo 040 (ASIC version with onboard cache). I've returned...

Apparently I've left the lid off my Quadra for 3 months. Finally got around to installing it today and had...clearancing issues?? I haven't seen it noted anywhere else: with some 16-bit cables attached to the SE IV in a IIvi-style case, the metal box in the top of the case that serves as a card...

Are you sure it's not a SCSI2SD? Those only support raw card access, though you can split the card into multiple drives with the utility.

(How are you so fast?) Have you considered a passthrough PDS slot and a physical card ID selection? Stacking SE/30 cards is very handy and the more cards with passthrough, the easier it is to customize (of course, you can't really get past a few cards or power and signaling issues crop up)...

What's the difference in capabilities versus the normal Wide?

Feels like OpenFirmware for 68k :D. It'd be real funny if someone ported OpenFirmware to run as a bootloader. I don't know if it would be good funny or bad funny but it would be funny.
