Once it's booted, however, you can take over the machine, as NetBSD and Linux have done for years.

I knew someone would dig that up.

Pic plz.

You'd have to have it use / and \ though it won't look as "nice" as the C64 version (the "/" and "\" are in fact graphics characters, not true / and \). I'll leave it as an exercise to the reader, but you can keep it in one line.

Rosetta, at least from the little amount of documentation Apple published, appeared to have issues with things that generate PowerPC code and then execute it. However, TraceMonkey worked fine with Rosetta. JaegerMonkey just appears to be too much for it, though. I'll probably document this in...

tcsh or GTFO. (I use Perl on A/UX.)

That's pretty sweet. I'm going to have to dig out the G5's USB-serial adaptor and try this with the Colour Classic.

You'd probably have to replace it; I don't think there is any real modularity to the AirPort encryption. But why not just get a wireless game converter? My TiBook in 9.2.2 has a Netgear wireless converter Velcroed to the back. It takes its power off FireWire and connects over Ethernet, and I can...

No, because while it will generate Intel code for the JavaScript compiler source, that Intel code when it runs will be generating PowerPC code. Like I say, I haven't really made the changes for crosscompilation because it's only building for PPC, and I don't have any way of testing them. Some...

It's probably the JavaScript compiler -- it plays fast and loose with stack frames to get everything to fit in the limited OS X PPC stack range. If the browser starts okay in safe mode, that's the problem (hold down Option as you start it). And, like theos911 said, use the G3 version. I get...

Aaaaand ... it's out. Enjoy.

17 final is just around the corner. I just made a last minute fix for a performance regression on multiprocessor Macs.

I have both that one and a later one, but the original MacAdvocate CD is the better of the series. It harks back to a different era, doesn't it?

Yeah, there's no retail _Intel_ Tiger at all; the retail boxed copies were PPC-only (10.4.0 and 10.4.6).

The Tiger disc you want is the 10.4.6 retail Tiger. That will boot and install on any supported Power Mac, even the quad and the last PowerBooks.

Aluminium, but I never had any issue with overheating. The Sonnet G4 card I have in it now has a fan, though.

Can you boot GS/OS off one? I'm always worried that one day the AE HD in my IIgs will let out the magic smoke.

Admittedly, being the Classilla development machine, it works rather hard for an MDD. It also has an ATI Radeon 9000 Pro, two hard disks, two optical drives, 2GB of memory and a 1.8GHz 7447A upgrade. That's within 360W, but it's still quite a draw when chugging away. Nevertheless, I haven't had...

The F-line trap error is probably spurious. You just plain ran out of memory or overflowed something, and the garbage instruction it landed on was an Fxxx instruction. Even if it did have an FPU, it would still have crashed, just somewhere else. Someone else can comment on the copy (I suspect...

The MDDs are fine machines except for their aggravating power supply failure rate. (My personal MDD has consumed two.)
