Yes

Hi

When I did get it working, I was amazed at how clean and smooth it worked.

I’ll see what I can do before I leave for vacation in Florida this week. If not, it’ll have to wait until I come back.

Hi there! Unfortunately, the image from above didn't work . It threw me one of those Fx codes. Could you please send us that file when you get a second? Thanks!

Sure, I’ll have to make it first. I’ve never ripped it to a file, just used the Jaz cartridges once I imaged the A/UX installer to them.

If this image that robin-fo links to doesn’t work let me know and I’ll work on what I discussed above.

What problem did you experience with it? I just tested it with my RaSCSI on a IIsi and it works fine… (I only changed the extension from .dsk to .hda)

Are images with „normal“ MacOS versions booting normally?

Just noting that download #4 on this page (so called Shoebill image) also works on Blue SCSI.

Just have to change the file name to proper scsi blue format of like HD06_512.dsk
Also - my setup wasn't happy when the A/UX disk image was included amongst my other working drives (some with system folders) -- the system kinda hung around when the Happy Mac should show, FYI. So you may want to try just with that one image for starters in Blue SCSI.

Just to add one more note on a success with an SE/30, I set the previously mentioned Shoebill image as a boot volume on a ZuluSCSI adapter connected to a SE/30 with a MacRominator II. It is pretty slow compared to other Mac OSes of that era (unsurprisingly), but it boots and runs.

That's awesome!

Is there a trick to get the Shoebill image to work on a SE/30 with IIsi ROM? I can boot the disk image but all Unix binaries are failing.
With the original ROM it works fine, but I don't want to lose MacOS 8.1
