The Classic environment is notorious for having issues with timing sensitive operations, hence why so many people want machines that can natively boot OS 9.

I guess the PowerMac G5 still retained the SCC core for interfacing with the modem? The developer's notes don't mention this at all. I don't see much of a point of a stealth serial port vs using a KeySpan USB adapter though. Mac OS X doesn't support LocalTalk, which is pretty much the only...

Do these cards have compatibility with newer SATA 300 and 600 devices? I know back in the day these VIA6421 cards hated newer drives and you have to force the drive to 150Mbit mode (via jumper) for it to work on these cards. Later SATA drives dropped the SATA-150 mode jumpers and won't work at...

Is 32-bit addressing turned on? If not, the OS can't use more than 8MB of RAM and the rest will appear to be used by the OS.

Ugh.....its worse when its actually shill bidding. Thank you for the scans. A lot of detail in here that is missing from Inside AppleTalk 2nd Edition. @Tashtari and others writing AppleTalk routers will find this helpful.

So the auction ended at an eye popping price....

That be "No low ballers, I know what I've got!" pricing. It also shows that this thread fulfilled its purpose.

I always found it hard to call BASIC.SYSTEM a true "command shell" given it lacks many built-in commands (ex: you have to load the utilities program to copy files). The reality is most 8-bit Apple II users didn't have a hard drive or used a GUI. The vast majority booted off of a given 5.25"...

There is a PiStorm32 for the 68020 based Amiga 1200. So far a version for the 3000/4000 CPU slot hasn't appeared.

Apple IIgs accelerators do the same thing. Any time something hits the I/O range of the memory map, its back to 1Mhz since its all timing sensitive.

DD-WRT uses the Linux kernel, which properly routes AARP packets between WiFi and Ethernet.

PM6100 DOS Card (retail US)

Reply/Radius seemed to have gotten into the DOS card game too. Unlike their Nubus PPC line cards (which were clones of Hondini for 7100/8100), this is a new design with in-house software. Note this is the first I've seen of screenshots of this bespoke software...

A few Powerbook G4 systems that shipped in late 2003 originally came with MacOS X 10.2. When I purchased my 15in G4 AlBook (online order) on release day, it was a crap shoot whether it would have came with Panther preinstalled. Apple offered a Panther CD upgrade set to all purchasers for like...

Run a packet sniffer on the Ethernet segment of the network and filter out the AARP packets. If they appear as Ethernet II frames instead of SNAP frames, then the router or ZuluSCSI is mangling the packets. No tweaks are needed for OpenWRT or ddwrt. The code that handles the packet...

Surprised the Ubiquiti AP supports AARP properly given the track record of their routers with DDP traffic.

I have to go thru and recreate the steps. The in-progress version of A2SERVER already sets this up automatically. The biggest pain is creating a persistent TAP interface on boot, which differs depending on the Linux distro. You need to create a systemd service for TashRouter too.

Any router running ddwrt or OpenWRT should work. In theory any router running Linux should work properly as well as the kernel can properly route AARP packets between WiFi and Ethernet. GL.inet's entire router line runs OpenWRT and are pretty affordable.
