I have several of these. If anyone is interested I am happy to trade!

Turns out I was searching the wrong area on the forums. I am going to continue on this thread: https://68kmla.org/bb/threads/bolo-crashing-on-mac-classic.51339/page-2#post-582514

I have the opposite problem. I have a bog standard Mac Classic and an SE with an accelerator. The SE runs Bolo fine, but the Classic crashes.

Booting off the ROM did not fix the issue, however it isn't just giving me an address error with no detail now. I am getting a System Error ID = 02. I looked that up and Mac Wizard and...... that means address error. Next steps will be to boot it without the RAM module in it to see if it the...

I will try with booting from ROM. It runs fine until it gets Bolo going, but on my SE it is fine. That said, my SE has an accelerator, so that isn't fully apples to apples (pun intended).

I have been working to get my battlestation networked in hopes to get some Bolo going. On my IIci, Color Classic, PB180, and SE Bolo works great. On the Classic, I am getting an address error and bomb when I open Bolo. I replaced the hard drive with a bluescsi and a zuluscsi and it is...

Figured out what the issue was. I switched out one of the Phone Net adapters and found corrosion inside one of the plugs. I have two Macs pulling files from my IIci now! Thank you for all the help!

I will try that, thank you! Also, my name is Mike, and these are my macs, so it's kinda like talking to myself here!

Does the appletalk stuff care about phonenet? It works with a printer cable, so I have been assuming the software is good, but I haven't found anything so far that says different software is needed.

the cables do have 4 wires, I will test continuity on them.

My IIci is the only computer that has the appletalk control panel which does have it set to the printer port. That said, I am using the printer port on all of them, and the do work with the 8 pin cable 1 to 1, so I don't think that is an issue *anymore*. I did beat my head on that for about 15...

when I open up the chooser on any of the mac's I can't see the IIci. If I hook the macs up directly with a 8 pin printer cable, it works. I have been googling for phone net local talk setup and reading through LEM articles and many 68k forum posts. Based on everything I have ready, it...

I have recently setup all my old macs in my office at work and the tried and true way of moving files via floppy is not working due to some of the drives being 4 decades old and needing maintenance. I connected my IIci and Color Classic with a printer cable and was moving files and dug through...

got it, thanks!
