Have you looked at the Farallon section of http://www.macdrivermuseum.net/network.html?

For programming, I find ProFont to be more useful. Easier to distinguish (and therefore, debug) 1 from l, 0 from O or o, [ from { and ] from } to give the most obvious examples. It has been around since System 7 at least and has been updated to most font formats. Just my 2¢

Thanks! Maybe I'll give 2.0 a try on my IIci. BTW, have you ever looked for the 2.1 update? Any success?

Out of curiosity, why are you on 2.0 and not 3.1?

What version of A/UX? Is this a new, clean installation? If not, what modifications have been done? Have you tried changing the session type to something other than the default? More information please!

I think the CD capacity is a red herring. All my installation disks are 700MB Sony CD-R created with ImageBurner at 1X speed on a G4 Powerbook. They all work without issue.

-v = verbose

Yes, the progress bar does a little hiccup about 8 seconds into the 'Loading...' step before it changes to the 'Launching...' step. Try this: Boot from your install diskette and as soon the A/UX installation screen present a 'Cancel' button, hit it. The go up to the Preferences/Booting...

I would say try another boot floppy image like the one that penelope points to 'cilinder.be' I couldn't get anything out of the penelope software downloads. Various stuffit expanders wouldn't touch them and BinHex reported CRC errors. BTW, I fired up my IIsi and proceeded with an installation...

Sorry, but why bother with 50 pin drives at all? Where I am located (S.F. Bay) I can buy large, server grade (10k or 15k rpm) SCSI drives for peanuts and get a 80->50 or 68->50 pin adapter on ebay for a couple of bucks.

Forgot to mention the obvious. You've double checked the SCSI ids and termination of the HD and CD, right?

I have installed A/UX on a IIsi with a Apple300 CD successfully. I don't have time to pull out the IIsi right now to verify this I believe you must be booted off the install floppy. Booting off the HD and then clicking on the installer will result in errors/hangs, IIRC.

I feel like I've stumbled in on the middle of conversation. What, exactly, is going on here? What is in this IIsi?

PRAM Auto-Restore is a control panel that will do this. Classic, shareware.

I've noticed the same behavior. Works is definitely there; it just doesn't show up at first. Try playing around with the display options of the Extra drawer. Display all icons, unfiled icons, or switch to overview. I think Works will show up eventually...until the next reset. Tom
