I'm also borrowing from Digibarn the SCSI HD which were in their prototype - however they both don't work: 1 x Quantum Viking 3.5 series 455 68pin SCSI-2. Drive spins up but never becomes logically ready 1x Seagate Barracuda ST34371W 68pin SCSI-2. Drive spins up with lots of vibration but then...

HI, I noticed in your pic of the 9600 that you've got a fan positioned near the PCI slots. On my 9600 there isn't a fan attached like this - but there is one in the side-panel that comes off... I'm guessing the rev'd the design at some point. Interesting. James.

If people would like to have a play around with the ROM files - I've made available the following: * PEX ROM SIMM Dump * Original OF 2.0a9 Flash Chips Dump * Digibarn OF 2.3 Flash Chips Dump * OF 2.3 Device Tree listing (from Digibarn's Flash chips)

Yeah - if anyone knows whose the other people are - please make them aware of the latest developments!

Hi, I've now dumped the ROM and can e-mail it, if send me a PM with your e-mail address. James.

Thanks, I'm using the Digibarn ROM SIMM, which I've borrowed for a while. I've dumped the ROM and will be trying to make my own ROM SIMM. I've e-mailed 'Denis Nedry' the ROM SIMM dump.

Hey, Thanks for your replies guys. I got the PEX from a guy who had it originally on the applefritter forums. I solved the gray screen issue (the mouse/keyboard doesn't work) but it was down to having a CPU installed that the Mac OS ROM didn't recognise (a G4). Putting a 604e CPU in got Mac...

Hi, I'm trying to boot a prototype mac - PowerMac 9700 - and I'm trying both OS X and OS 8/9. In terms of trying to boot OS 8/9 and the main issue so far is that when I boot using the apple rom (APPL) I only get a gray screen (no happy or sad mac). No cursor or anything else. In terms of...

Using OF commands, after amending the settings for thermal-info I got the fan to turn on straight after booting, by setting them to 01010200 00000000 01010200 00000000. With the open firmware dump below of the values for via-pmu / power-mgt could anyone explain what the values present could...

Hi All, I've been delving around in open firmware on my Pismo to see if I can control the internal fan, or at least set a better temp. for it to come on at. In the device tree I've found the via-pmu, and under this is a node called 'power-mgt'. A property of this is called 'thermal-info'. As...

Hi, It's now also running on a PowerMac 9600 and 8500 (both with G4 upgrades): http://www.macmod.com/content/view/1571 James.

Hi, I've just found this old thread via a google search. Just in case anyone is still interested, completely separately to this thread, I was able to get Leopard running on a g4-upgraded Beige. Details at this thread: http://forums.appleinsider.com/showthread.php?t=88395 Regards, James.
