Wow, that's baffling, but definitely helpful, and probably an important thing we were missing. Thanks @finkmac! I have no idea what purpose those 8 bytes serve, but they must be necessary, otherwise the part wouldn't be there. I have some 93C46s on the way.

Here's the output from loading the kext after fixing its permissions with your utility (thanks for that!) It loads successfully, then after a while, unloads. With the last line of output from kextload being "matching started", I'm assuming this means it never finds a match? As was the case in...

How about just booting into Open Firmware with no EEPROM installed in the card? Thanks, that explains what we've been seeing here (but not why, since it appears to actually prevent the card from working properly). That's weird. PCI vendor code 1095 belongs to Silicon Image :unsure: Thanks. I...

Still on Panther, I see the kext is loaded during boot, but after some time, it disappears: I haven't been able to correlate the timing of its disappearance with a specific action.

No, I wish it was that simple. W49V002AP (on the Mac card) and SST49LF020A (on my card) are both 256K byte parts. I will try that and report back. I can upgrade the machine to Tiger if necessary, probably should anyway.

I admit, I got kind of overwhelmed by the barrage of posts on this and set it aside for a while, but I just dusted off my Digital Audio G4 today so I decided to give the flashed card a try there. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work in OS X either. In 10.0, it shows up in System Profiler the...

Just peeked inside mine, looks like 92mm. Good luck!

Agreed. I'll drink to that!

Sorry for being pedantic, but it looks like MG 4010A is mostly ethanol, D5, and isopropyl alcohol. I still wouldn't do shots of it, but you probably could, so extremely toxic is an exaggeration. Extremely volatile, perhaps. Disclaimer: I am not a doctor, and this does not constitute medical...

Hah, I barely rank around here, but thanks for the compliment :) It seems like sometimes the installer doesn't recognize the emulated SCSI device for some reason, but once you get the driver installed, it works. Enjoy!

Can you click Customize and choose to install the SCSI/Link driver manually? I think this is how I did it on my SE running 6.0.8.

Man, it does? I never would have guessed that based on the photos. Good work, hopefully you're close to breaking this little guy free from its jail bars.

Thanks! I'm fairly new to GitHub; I think the correct way to do this would be to create a fork, add my files, then submit a PR to your repo from my fork. Does that sound right?

I made my own weird TashPads! I'm a weirdo who actually enjoys SMT soldering, so I swapped the through-hole resistors, caps, and diodes for SMT parts and used some of the leftover space to add an ICSP connector. The result works great and was super fun to build. Thank you @Tashtari and @demik...

@WillJac / Caymac Vintage is another good option to save your SE/30 board.

I tried this out on my SE yesterday with TurboGopher on System 6 and it works great! Thank you for building it.

Yep, see the little dot in the lower left hand corner of the chip? That's pin 1. I'm having trouble making out whether there are any corresponding markings on the board, though. Usually there's a silkscreened dot or some other kind of symbol to match the dot on the chip up to.

That's beautiful! Fantastic work.

For some reason I can't get the machine to boot into OF, but I was able to pull some info with the PCI DDK (thanks @DarthNvader). Attached are the full device tree info dump (as Name Registry Output.txt) and just the Mathey card info (as Mathey.txt). Poking around the ASCII in the...

Congratulations! Great troubleshooting work.
