Sorry about the lack of updates; I haven't had a lot of time to play with my SE/30. Once you make the SD card you can certainly make a bit backup. I use dd on my MBP but any bit dump will work.

Sure, I'll let you know if it turns out to be a bust. Thanks for the advice.

Great, thanks so much for the info. I'll try to hunt for the real deal. In the meantime I'll at least check to see how I stand with the ones I bought, but it sounds like I can't do much damage popping them in as a temporary measure.

Was just gifted an AppleII+, unfortunately it's missing the CPU for unknown reasons. I'm hoping it's not trash and I'm willing to put in a few bucks to experiment.  Is there any guide on picking a 6502 replacement for an AppleII+? I picked up a pair of R65C02P4 processors from eBay because they...

OK I actually found a SCSITools.img somewhere on the internet a few days back which appears to be a bootable 7.5.3 SCSI2SD image and dd'd that to my SD card and everything seems to be working now. I'm not particularly sure why my steps didn't work unless there's fundamentally something wrong...

v5. I will take a screenshot when I get home for sure.

Ordered a FloppyEmu so I can boot a HD tool on my SE/30 -- by the time I buy a real floppy drive and diskettes I'm halfway to the cost of one anyway. In the meantime, is there a chance that someone could post a disk image of their SD card and their SCSI2SD settings? I have been trying just...

Yeah, I've broken down and I'm trying to put together a beater computer with a floppy drive and SCSI card. Hopefully it's fairly easy to make a boot floppy using Linux or something like that. Thanks for the advice, I'll update once I've got something positive :)

Quick update: Found http://www.codesrc.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=HFSFromScratchand managed to install 7.5.3 using BasiliskII on a 1.9GB image (I'm using a 4GB SD card, it's literally the smallest I could find). BasiliskII seems to boot well enough off this image. I then created the +96...

Hey guys and gals, So I bit the bullet and bought a SCSI2SD after the original disk in my SE/30 died. I'm trying to find some information on how to do a clean installation but to be honest I'm coming up empty. There seems to be a lot of information about getting everything set up if you've...

There's nothing super critical on the drive. Most of it is software I can get online. I have nothing left to lose so I'll crack the case tomorrow. Just wanted to run it past you guys and gals first :) Thanks again!

Hey guys, I have a feeling I already know the disk is dead, but my SE/30, freshly recapped, isn't booting. Just getting the ? icon. Disk spins up and light flashes, but nothing.  Took the disk out and connected it to a PC with an Adaptec 2940. The SCSI BIOS disk scan doesn't see the drive at...

Thanks for the help everyone. Going to try this tonight or tomorrow. SE/30 no longer boots (recapped, and still get folder with question mark) so hopefully the disk isn't too far gone. 

Hi all, Apologies if there's already a thread on this, my preliminary search wasn't helpful.  I have an SE/30 that I am currently re-capping and cleaning. It was loaded with software and I'd love to back that up and archive it. My plan was to pop the SCSI drive into a Linux machine along with...

Not going to lie, have no idea. I'm going to guess it's unlikely :)

Thanks everyone!  Right now the machine itself is sitting on my coffee table while I find a torx driver long enough to pull the cover. I'm getting antsy thinking about the PRAM battery so that'll definitely be the first thing that goes. I'll probably also end up doing a few mods to quiet her...

I've been wanting a vintage box for quite a while but I never had the patience to scour eBay for deals. I was pretty sure I'd always end up with an SE/30 so that's all I've ever really searched for, though only half-heartedly. On a fluke I happened to check Craigslist on Monday and found...
