    Availability of RAM Disk under System 7

    When using System 6 and RAMDisk+ and using the hot-swapping, you have to make sure the same Control Panels and Extensions that you want on the RAM Disk are loaded on the disk based boot drive. You cannot install them after. On Macs that had no HDD, using a 1.44 MB floppy you can have System 6...

    Trying to get my Asante ethernet card to work on my Mac SE/30

    Without ever owning and researching the Blue SCSI products, I cannot offer much help with those. It appears you're asking if the SE/30 can have two network interfaces attached? The answer is yes. Each Network Interface Card owns a MAC address, the IP address is assigned to that. They will be...

    Trying to get my Asante ethernet card to work on my Mac SE/30

    Yeah, usually DHCP won't auto populate until you send a TCP request by loading a website or some other TCP request. So set it up and then close the TCP/IP Control Panel and load a Website or FTP request and it should auto populate. TBH you're better off to leave it manual as it is and you'll...

    Help installing Mac OS 8.1 on my Mac SE/30

    Pulling files off of an SE to reuse

    It sounds to me like you're working with a Mac System 7 smi file (self mounting image) and you want to use it to install a new OS on the SE/30. Yes, if it fits on a Zip disk you can do it. Just put the image file on a zip and use it on the SE/30. Don't copy the mounted images to the zip.

    System 7.1 bootable CD-R ...

    To clarify, you can download Toast for a 68k Mac to run on your Mac IIsi just to make the bootable iso in which you can later transfer and burn that iso with with your Mac mini which does have a CD burner. So look within Toast for an option to make the iso bootable. You're not actually going to...
