In the quest to make my IIsi as speedy as possible, I've been migrating from System 7.5.5 to 7.1. The only thing I can't get working in 7.1 that works fine with 7.5.5 is copying files to my netatalk file server running on a Raspberry Pi. Copying files from the server works fine, but when I try...

I don't think AppleTalk actually works with Basilisk II - that's why you need to use TCP/IP networking and type in the IP address of your server. More info here: https://www.emaculation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7021

Lauch BasiliskIIGUI and click on the Serial/Network tab and make sure slirp is selected for Ethernet Interface. I believe slirp is built-in as I don't remember installing it separately. I had to set my IP settings manually in the TCP/IP control panel as described here...

I was able to find a DayStar IIsi cache adapter / PDS passthrough for my DayStar accelerator - now running at 50 MHz! It's getting a bit crowed in there with the Ethernet card... Here's the upgraded Speedometer score: The IIsi is much more usable online now!

I can connect to my Netatalk file server on my Intel MBP via slirp Ethernet Interface in Basilisk II, but I have to go to Chooser -> AppleShare -> Server IP Address and enter the server's IP. It will NOT connect via AppleTalk.

Ok, thanks for the explanation - that was driving me crazy. I'm measuring 16 ohms from the 5V to GND. My IIsi doesn't give continuity from 5V to GND so I thought something was drastically wrong with the IIci. Good to know. So looking at the audio circuit below, I see that A/BRST go into pin...

All of the traces are surprisingly good. Looking at the schematic, I'm beginning to wonder if the chip at UB13 may be bad and maybe shorting out the 5V to ground? I'm probably at the point where I need to start swapping out components...

No battery damage. I thought about the ROM too, so I tried a Mac ROM-inator II in the rom slot and removed the jumper but got the same gray screen...

I get no chime when I turn it on. And thanks for the help! What do you think about the 5V and ground rails having continuity?

Hey guys, I recently acquired a IIci that just gives me a gray screen upon boot. I've got 12V and 5V at the HD power connector, so I'm assuming the PS is good. The board has some corrosion in the expected places near the surface caps, and C10, C13, and the IC at UD13 basically fell off with a...

Wow, that's thicker than I thought - thanks!

Just got one of these cards in a IIci project. Did you ever have any luck finding the manual?

As I recall, you need LaserWriter 8.0 and use the generic driver. The printer is not actually on the SCSI bus - CUPS is a "print server" on your network.

Agreed that a SCSI to Ethernet adapter or a RaSCSI are the way to go. With the RaSCSI, you'll also get other emulated SCSI devices (HD's, CDROM drives, etc) and the ability to print to modern printers.

Nice! They're good for hosting BBS's too. :)

Yes, Black Night and MacSSH can emulate VT100 and VT220 if that helps you at all. And they also emulate ANSI for BBS'ing!

I don't see any mention of a cache connector in the manual. Is there a way to tell if the upper connector is PDS vs cache?

I use Brother DCP-L2550DW laser printer and it works great. The old method to install it is here, but I believe it's an Easy Install option now with the latest version of RaSCSI. Another option is to print via LPD (TCP/IP) which is described here.

It must be CUPS (Apple AirPrint) compatible to work.

Yeah, you should! It was pretty slick when my modern Cannon MG6200 inkjet printer showed up in Chooser under the Laserwriter driver and then proceeded to print in color.
