Some of us are eagerly waiting for Manabu Sakai's CF AztecMonster, a CF to 3.5" SCSI adapter. Well, after waiting several months for his shipment taking place and some kind of an adventure tour through customs I'm happy to report that I hold them in my hands actually. To start with, here's the...

Guys, this is just to let you know that my AztecMonsters finally have made it through customs. To avoid hitchhiking this thread, I'll start a new one.

Well, I don't have v1.4.4, but v1.4.5. Get it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?bfdpes75avvfdal Not sure if it helps, though. From the accompanying README file: Network Software Installer Version ZM-1.4.5 Read Me You can use this Network Software Installer to install the following networking...

Well, I think that picture delivers a different information. A better one, in fact. It shows that LIDO can access the SCSI bus and it shows SCSI device #7, that is the Macintosh on-board SCSI controller. The RAM Disk is not implemented as a SCSI device, IMHO. But if the SCSI cable between main...

Well, if Lido does not even see the Macintosh on-board SCSI controller, then we can assume there's a problem with the SCSI bus itself and not necessarily with your hard disk. You can stop trying the hard disk jumper settings and trying to initialize that disk, either internally mounted or...

Lido is available here: http://www.euronet.nl/users/mvdk/diskutilities.html Just for interest: When scanning the SCSI bus, does it detect the Macintosh SCSI controller with SCSI-ID 7?

Well, before you go for applications, maybe you should first decide on the operating system. There is a dependance between the browser you are going to use and the O/S you are using. In your first post, you mentioned System 6 on your old HD, and 7.5.5 on the new one. Will you keep the 7.5.5 or...

Maybe I can help. Herb Johnson did a wonderful description on how to open that kind of case: http://www.retrotechnology.com/herbs_stuff/hd20_open.html

In order to make sure that the kernel has NFS support loaded at all, let's check that # module_dump /unix does give a lot of output and finally ends with: ufs ufs included soft nfs nfs included soft and in addition, let's check that in /etc/inittab the lines starting with nfs4...

First things first: Thanks a lot for uploading the updaters. As for my interest in them - well, I have a (legal) copy of HDT2.5 which is heavily used for backup purposes (HDT Device Copy). From time to time it runs into some problems, so I want to be sure not to use the 2.5.0 version, but a bug...

Good news: The FWB Hard Disk Toolkit updater that was available all the years at http://www.fwb.com/dc/hdt/hdt2.5_to_2.5.3.sea.hqx is available at archive.org. Bad news: The file is damaged. Should be 3.2MB, but is just 774KB in size after download and is broken. Any kind soul out there lucky...

The SE/30 should detect all your memory. However, when running A/UX it will split the memory in two pools: one for A/UX and one for the MacOS on top of A/UX. The FAQ has all the details: http://christtrek.dyndns.org:8000/doc/aux/faq.html#AdminVM The usability depends on what you're wanting to...

The issues were the same or even worse. One time I've lost a complete file system. Two observations: (1) Consider a hard disk with A/UX volumes that works well in a SE/30. The same disk, mounted in a Quadra 650, suddenly begins to have problems with corrupted file systems. The Quadra 650 does...

Just my two cents: Disabling the write cache of the disk solved all the problems here.

You're right. Thanks a lot for your help.

Just finished a fresh install of System 7.1.1 on my newly arrived Quadra 700 w/ 1MB VRAM and 20MB RAM. Everything looks OK, but the Options button in the Monitors control panel gives a message as follows: "Sorry, there is not enough memory available to show the options right now." For System...

From your experience, what is the latest version of Dantz (EMC) Retrospect supporting 68K machines? Is it correct that version 2 does support 68K machines, and version 4 does not? How about version 3?

Wow. Currently, I'm struggling with the same problem. Any chance to get your Toby card to Germany? How much would you ask for it?

Well, the subject says it all. Having set up A/UX 3.02 on my brave SE/30, the time has come to consider backing it up. So how do you do it? For me, offline backup would be sufficient. Maybe there is a way to dump the whole disk including the UNIX partition onto a second disk? Things to choose...

The Pioneer DR-U16S works for installing A/UX 3.0.1 and can be used together with A/UX 3.0.1 and 3.0.2 later on.
