Are you installing on the 1st partition, and is it 8GB or smaller?  (That is required)  I did this years ago, also 10.4, using Xpostfacto, and it was a pain... I think it took 3 or 4 days.. And now that I think about it, I think I installed it to the first partition (8GB), with OS9 on the...

I just want to add that Amazon sells things that will never work, and possibly cause damage.  Like this serial to FireWire adapter ...

I don’t understand why there’s no flashing question mark.

It might give you a bad shock & burn, but there are no examples of death (until now). Refer to authorized technician only. 

Yeah... NO! When the battery runs down, the clock won’t slow down. It won’t have enough voltage to run the oscillator, and the clock will act erratically, or just not work.  The oscillator can only run at its fixed frequency. 

There’s a chance that a alkaline battery will leak. 

I think this is too much “hackery” for a $8 battery that lasts 10 years. I always use the correct 1/2 AA battery. There are too many people out there saying they explode, but that doesn’t happen until the battery is completely dead, and the chemistry reverses polarity, creating a “takeoff” reaction.

60/40 solder will do just fine, and doesn’t have a high melting point, which can cause more problems to the traces & vias. 

Welcome! From the Classic Mac Repair Notes (http://www.ccadams.org/se/classicmac2.pdf) “The reason for the nonconductivity requirement is that the control is actually a ferrite core inside an inductor carrying large alternating currents. The AC field would induce large currents in a conductive...

The top of the capacitor in the first picture looks popped to me.   

I always hated that the Beatles sued Apple, and thought it was stupid.  Nobody went to the store and said “I want to buy one of those Beatles computers. It must be a Beatles computer because there’s an Apple on it”.

Do you mean the Standard wrap with the markings / rating / branding on them, or is there an overwrap? The standard wrap is also there because the can is often connected to the negative pin   I once saw a video where someone said (while pointing to a bank of caps with overwrap & glued to...

@Knuckx NO! The card is not SCSI. It cannot be used for SCSI. It WILL NEVER BE SCSI!!!! You will have to use the onboard SCSI, or a separate SCSI card. ...And a FAST hard drive, or SCSI2SD. You will get "Disk To Slow" errors if the disk isn't fast enough.  You pretty much have a project...

I saw someone in Michigan had one of these, and it looked pretty cool and interesting, but I couldn’t find a useful reason to buy it, other than “just to play with”.

I believe we found it to be this one: https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/640456-2/A1921-ND/109003 Check end of first page, and beginning of 2nd page of this post for other info. 

Geez... another reply from me! I was wrong, and that card can be used with the 882 or Session 8. And you can get protools “3.4 free” here: http://www.oakbog.com/PT3NuBus.html

I’m sure steve jobs would’ve had someone fired for that.... Or the whole team!

Do you have the adapter for HDI-45 to DB15? The last time I looked, they were rare & expensive, kinda like when they were new..

Oh, yeah, one more thing.  I know it will work with Digidesign Sound Tools and Sound designer software.  ....When I used it in ‘95. 

That is not a scsi card at all.  It is a DSP for connecting a Avid or digidesign 442 audio interface.  It’s good for 4 channels of audio at 16 bit 44.1 kHz You may actually ruin the card by using it for SCSI.  And yes, you can use a standard HD-50 cable. ...
