I'm really messed up now. Since I have a ROM-inator II, I need to patch the the OS and I'm trying to follow the 'Mac SE/30 with Upgraded ROM' on the BMOW website. But I'm not able to make it work. I'm using the prebuilt 7.5 with RezEdit 2.1.3 but I can't edit the 'gusd' file in the system...

Thank you Callen. I have ordered a replacement power supply for my SE/30 for one reason. The old SE/30 power supply does not have over-voltage crowbar circuits which means if the 5v supply shorts and puts 12 volts on the 5v rail, it could do a lot of damage. Modern power supplies have crowbar...

Thank you all for your responses. Zigzagjoe, I will check my ZuluSCSI Slim to see if those jumpers are installed on my unit. Callan, I haven't patched my 7.5 and 7.5.3 images. Mk.558, I had a 10/100 network card in my SE/30 and it was dirt slow. I've replaced the network card with a PDS Slot...

I finally tested the prebuilt images and here's what I found. With the BlueSCSI desktop booting from any image, I get the floppy question mark. Putting the microSD in my BlueSCSI DB25, I get the "Welcome to Macintosh" screen but it stalls there. Here are the logs from each boot...

Okay, I built a new boot disk 7.5.3, with SheepShaver for the SE/30. I copied it over to the 64 GB microSD and renamed it HD00_512 SE/30.hda. But when I put it in the BlueSCSI Desktop It shows nothing mounted at SCSI 0. I can boot from my ROM-inator II but there's nothing on the SCSI bus. I...

Well, I was afraid of this, in following the WiFi Daynaport documents, I started with setting up a 16GB microSD card. When I plugged the card directly into a USB-C port of my M1 MBP, I was able to format it using Disk Utility (DU) but could only select exFAT in MacOS Sonoma 14.6.1. After...

Thank you for your responses. I've seen Bruce's review on the ZuluSCSI Pico Slim and have gone through it to help make my own 7.5.5 Mac boot image for the Mac SE/30. What's missing is how to setup the wifi. I will follow the links you all sent. If you have anything more to send me, I...

Good Afternoon you all, I need some help. I own a SE/30 (which I love!) and an LC 475 (which is a great Mac!). I'm bringing them back up after several years and I originally put SCSI2SD cards to replace their HDs. Now I want to put them online and the easiest way is through WiFi. I have...

Thank you, Gerry

I recently got my Booster 30-50F and put it in the pds slot on my SE/30. Work great. How do I slow it down to play games? Thank you, Gerry

In my router there is a range of IP addresses assigned to DHCP and that's from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.99.  If I manually assign an IP address to a device on the network, it is outside of that range, meaning 192.168.100 to 192.168.1.254 (do not use 255).  I do this to keep a service like a...

Sounds like you MIGHT have a similar problem to the one I had with my LC475.  Since I have a Apple IIe card in the internal slot, I connected an Asante EN/SC external ethernet box that sits in the SCSI chain.  But I couldn't get it to work, very frustrating.  Then I tried a null ethernet cable...

Thanks olePigeon and good luck with your Iici.  Using an SD card for the system drive is dead quiet but speed is limited by the SCSI bus.  My focus was making my SE/30 as fast as possible. Blougram, according to my document, Mode32 is run to remove it from the system disk if it's installed...

Good Morning All, I have completed the upgrades to my SE/30 and I thought I'd share my experience.  I replaced the system HD with a 16 GB SCSI2SD divided into 5 partitions.  The first one I kept down to 2 GBs for compatibility, three more sized at 4 GBs, and the final leftover is 718 MBs.  The...

Thank you for your responses.  When I bought the SE/30 a couple of years ago, the motherboard caps had already been replaced, but that apparently didn't include the power supply. I'm using the model A Floppy EMU in floppy mode to boot the SE/30.  I've been exchanging emails with Steve...

Hello everyone.  I got my SE/30 up and running yesterday.  I brought it out of storage last week to replace the dirty ROM with a clean one from bigmessowires but the CRT display would blink on and off.  I left it on for a while and it eventually stopped that, but it tried to boot but hung.  Then...

Thanks for the suggestions. I will follow up when I have time. Gerry

It was a long process to build these two machines. I owned a IIgs back in the '80s but sold it when I needed room for newer PCs. What got me back into it was the CFFA3000. When I saw what it could do, I immediately ordered two of them (they were available at the time) before I had any real...

Okay, what's the value of a ROM 01 (or ROM 03, I have both) IIGS with an Uthernet card, an Apple HS SCSI card with CD-ROM drive, a 17 MHz TWGS, Apple II 3.5" drive controller along with two 3.5 1.44 Superdrives, one 3.5 800K drive, two 5.25 floppy drives, a CFFA3000 along with an A2heaven 8MB...

Hi All, as promised I've been working on speeding up my LC475.  I have two motherboards but one case.  I found the documents online for speeding up an LC475 to 33 or even 40 MHz.  So I ordered the switches, wires, resistors, heat shrink, etc., to add the mod.  I had already purchased a couple of...
