Anyone know where I can get a working copy of 8-bit GEOS for the Apple IIe. I'd be willing to pay someone for a working copy on floppy. If I found the software online, it would be a bear to get it on a floppy myself. Additionally, I'm also looking to get a copy of Apple II Desktop. My Apple IIe...

Yes

So I finally got A/UX 3.0.1 working on my Quadra 700. One oddity that I cant figure out is, when I follow the instructions to disable auto-login, it doesn't do anything. I've set the root password, created user level accounts, and deleted the autologin file in mac/sys - but still nothing. It...

Yes, it's in an external enclosure, same behavior even when not connected to a scsi bus, including audio cds, it reads for like 1 sec then spits it out.

I bought this drive off eBay to do an a/ux install, but having a weird issue, when I insert a cd caddy it starts to load then a few seconds later immediately spits it right back out. I've tried different cds, caddys. When I contacted the seller he claims it was working and maybe it's an issue...

No working floppy drives right now!

I'm having an issue with floppy drives right now, so on my SCSI2SD I want to mimic an Apple HDD that an unpatched HD SC will recognize, but what is the largest one I can do? I just tried " SEAGATE" and "ST225N" but that's only a 20mb drive?

I just wanted to rule-out a more serious issue, but on my Quadra 700 (base 512k VRAM), using my adapter and LCD, I'm getting 640x480, but there is a heavy green tone. Oddly, even if I switch to greyscale, I still have the green tone. Same adapter/LCD works well on many other Macs, so I'm...

Yeah, pram has been out for awhile. I was just using it a bit before complete tear down so I can redo the caps. I do have a backup motherboard, but was curious if the ac power adapter maybe fried and was supplying bad voltage. John

So a weird event happened. I was using my PB 3400 (PATA SSD), then all of sudden, BEEP, it reboots. There was no battery, and it was connected only via wall power adapter. Upon bootup it failed to do anything, it would chime, then thats it, just hum, nothing on screen. Is it possible that its a...

So I cleanly got my 3400 Li battery open, clean inside, now I'm ready to rebuild with new 26650 Li cells. Question, when you search Amazon or ebay, there are two kinds, one specifically states as being HI DRAIN, the other not. Which one should I get? If anyone here has rebuilt a battery with...

Finally got my 3400 battery opened up. Was about to buy 4x 26650 cells (3.7V), but I've noticed there are two kinds, one is specifically labeled HIGH DRAIN 40A, the other just says 3.7V 5000mAh for flashlight or other devices. Do I want the high drain, or the non high drain? Thanks John

Just to chime in... I've been trying to get a Kingspec 32gb SSD to work for the past 2 days in my PB3400. It sounds like other people have had success, maybe I got a dud? I just can't seem to finish an install, it will hang on driver update, or I just get a random error with disk. When the...

I decided to go with a king spec pata ssd as it seems to work better then cf, should arrive in a few days.

Anybody have a copy? I used this all the time back in the 2000's on OS 9 machines. Very good SSH client. The company is still around, but sort of re-branded themselves around cloud and vpn solutions. After some googling, I found some university sites referencing it, but all the links are dead. I...
