Finally got off my lazy butt and connected the drive to the G3 to get the model number. Here's the relevant information for the drive I use with A/UX on my Quadra 700:
Make and Model:
Vendor: Pioneer
Revision number: 1.06
Product ID: CD-ROM DR-U12X
Speed: 12 Times
Model: DR-466
A/UX...
Howto Disable catsearchd:
To disable catsearchd you need to edit your /etc/inittab file. As root, type the following:
vi /etc/inittab
Then look for a line that looks like this:
csd:2:respawn:/etc/catsearchd # start catsearch daemon
And change it to look like this...
Different CDROM
I will let you know which CDROM drive I'm using as soon as I figure out how to get the model name from within A/UX. I'm not particularly motivated enough to open the case and read the label on the drive mechanism. So I'll probably just end up plugging the drive into my G3...
They're probably all dead because Corel didn't make WordPerfect 3.5e available for general distribution on the Internet. I believe the only place where people could legally download WP 3.5e, was from the Corel website. The license that accompanied the software said that you could only give...
I never ever did the 300 baud thing. I was a late bloomer. I didn't join in on the fun until I got my Atari SX212 (1986-1987ish?) 1200 baud modem. Went from that to having no modem. Then took up the hobby again in 1994 with a USRobotics Mac and Fax.
There isn't a data sharing protocol on the Internet that isn't full of "some very foul and probably not entirely legal pictures." You ever hear the tune, We Built This City? Well, in that tune, the city was built on rock and roll. The Internet was built on porn. Plain and simple.

I don't know if everyone is tip-toeing around the word hotline, or why they would be, if they are, it just seems that all of the "worthwhile" hotline servers have disappeared. I was just thinking that no one really bothered with them anymore. And if that's the case, I was thinking that maybe...
General A/UX
I think A/UX is going to become my summer obsession. I really like it. It's UNIX, which I like. It runs on my old Quadra 700, which was lying dormant. And it's bizarre and different enough to challenge.
No root filesystem
I did read the FAQ. (Great job, by the way.) It...
I've never understood the allure of System 6. I liken System 6 to GEOS on a Commodore 64; primative as primative can be. A/UX, on the other hand, now that's an operating system. One with one Hell of a learning curve too, I might add. [:D] ]'>
Installed A/UX 3.0.1 on my Quadra 700 today. Everything went pretty smoothly once I got my Q700 ready for the install. I used a hard drive that I pulled from an old SGI box, so I had to fiddle with some jumpers. I also had to pull my Rasterops Paintboard Prism GT card out.
I had a couple...
My external Pioneer 12x SCSI CDROM works. I'll give you the model number as soon as I figure out how to get the model number in A/UX 3.0.1. Looks like this is going to keep me busy for a while.
Does anyone still use Hotline servers? There doesn't appear to be many around anymore. So I'm thinking that no one really uses them anymore. Do you? If not, what do you use instead?
I think I paid $40 for mine a few years back. If I had not been in such a huff when I left these forums last year, I would have kept the old 950. But I tossed it to the trash. Along with my 7300, 7200, LC III, and LC. I now have only two Macs: Q700 and Beige G3. Once those two die...
I got more RAM for my server yesterday, too. It'll be up to a whopping 640 megabytes now. [twirls finger in the air and says, "Whoopee!"] [:P] ]'> I just have to get around to actually installing it.
Like I said, the worst they could have done was said no. At least they didn't say no. Not literally anyway.
When I asked them for permission to pirate Codewarrior, they said to ask someone else. I'll post their reply if you'd like.
Has anybody dared to ask Freescale Semiconductor for it? Or permission to make it available for download?
From what I hear, Freescale Semiconductor owns the rights to Codewarrior. The only remaining versions that they support are the versions that they're giving away for free. They might...
