    Installer SDK tips?

    Getting rid of the 'Your clock is not set to the correct time' alert dialog after System 7 boots

    details of LCII floppy and hard disk sleds

    Weird Takky Color Classic Issue

    Color classic not detecting hdd

    Simple things first, is the termination enabled on the drive, or do you have an external terminator? SCSI needs one set of terminating resistors if there is only one thing on the bus, but needs 2 for two or more devices

    White Knight Host Mode

    This definitely sounds cool, I wonder if there's a way to configure it to run over Ethernet like Black Night without the WiModem232 (and a 232 to 422 adapter)
