    OS9 Helper Dead?

    Pretty sure they've always "owned" it.. that said, it's fully archived on http://archive.org, including the add-on files for 3400/2400, compatibility list, etc. EDIT: hmm.. seems 2dfx makes an interesting point, that if 1.2.2 is newest, it's not there? can anyone confirm 1.2.2 as the latest...

    5300cs - how to find a PCMCIA to SD card adapter that is 16 bit?

    I'd love to see some disk performance test results with something relevant to old Macs (MacBench 5 for example) Also curious to know if speed of SD matters at all on a machine this slow.

    Radius RocketShare & SoftPC 3.1

    I'm really not surprised, but I feel that there's no reason it shouldn't work with some work... there's also not much reason a rocket can't boot A/UX either TECHNICALLY, but it also won't boot. I suspect that there's some core differences in the rocket rom as compared to the 900/950 rom that...

    Request Macintosh TV original system CD ISO

    I kinda feel like the restore was on floppies, not CD... are you still looking if it's on floppy?

    Beige G3 Wings card: How to use?

    Apple Video Player comes with Mac OS 8/9 when it's installed and it detects a video capture device (apple card specifically). If you're running an already-installed build, you may have to rerun the installer. I installed 9.2.1 on the G3 that's in front of me, and the application's default...

    Beige G3: PCI SATA, is it an option?

    if you want bootability, there's only a few Mac-compatible pci SATA cards. The most common are based on the SIL3112 chipset, but stock PC Cards will require an eprom reprogramming to function. On the upside, they work well with classic MacOS as well as MacOS X as they emulate a bootable SCSI...

    Adding Wi-Fi to my Mac SE/30

    This is very nice! great size, and works as a proper bridge- (unlikely) but is there any support for WPA2-Ent in the module? The data sheet doesn't seem to indicate.

    Silicon Image SIL3112 Flashing: Easier Way Using flashrom

    Heh-- doing some testing, but offhand it's not going well- Still waiting for a proper 39LV010 to test with- tried with a 39F010, and card boots, shows correct firmware version and shows as a SCSI controller, but doesnt seem to want to actually work. strange as there's a proper termination 0x00...

    Silicon Image SIL3112 Flashing: Easier Way Using flashrom

    This is correct- I've been pre-programming my chips with 5.0.7 using an external eprom programmer to, then I can either upgrading to 5.1.3 or 5.3.1, or just leave as-is.

    Silicon Image SIL3112 Flashing: Easier Way Using flashrom

    A few points: SeriTek v5.0.7 actually fits on a 128kb ROM I need to get a spare 1megabit chip to test it with since all my 3112 cards came with 4megabit chips, but it should work fine on cards with a limited PCI boot ROM capacity. It's not particularly unstable and I've been running it on one...

    3D-Printed Objects

    So.. what are the thoughts on "print it yourself, and have it be streaky" vs. use a service like Shapeways for a more professional finish or even a nice polished look? Cost is much higher with shape ways, but having seen a number of their parts in person, I wonder if it's not worth it for...

    PCI Power Mac processor card cross-compatibility?

    The high-end Sonnet G4 upgrade cards do NOT work with 0380 - 0383 ROM based 9600's. While Sonnet was still selling the last of their stock on their cards, I bought and returned something like 3 of the 1GHz G4 cards until we traced the issue to the unsupported OF version, which installing the...

    Cloning the Pippin Flash ROM board

    The part number is a bit hard to make out on the side of the ROM card edge connector, but it is CELP2X60 Here's the specific part from the Burndy Microbus™ 50mil. datasheet: The same card edge connector is used for BOTH the ROM and the PCI/Storage connector on the bottom of the console.

    Cloning the Pippin Flash ROM board

    I was gonna order from digikey (part number 1092-1083-ND)- I was a bit confused about the top/bottom boot sector, but I'm not finding anyone using bottom... also not even sure if it even matters. I also did some test fitting, and while I'm not sure I will, it DOES appear that the GM PCB design...

    Cloning the Pippin Flash ROM board

    Got a SOP adapter in the mail today. I dumped my ROM chips directly this time as a 29F800 device. As expected, my programmer detects pins 43 & 44 (/WE & /RESET) as not connected- no surprise there of course. Dump matches existing per-chip dumps for the retail ROM. The data is split...
