OrangePC Card on IIfx

got an orange386 and still trying to figure out where to put it since ISA extenders i havent come across as of yet
iici and into its digidesign expansion chassis. dedicated a macintosh ii/x to it?

The ISA slots are a nice inclusion but fitting anything in there is quite the design flaw! I'd look out for a ISA riser card from a 386, 486 slimline case (with 90 degree slots) that allows you to fit a card in upside down, so to speak. Other option would be a really low profile network or sound card.
386DX (32 bit memory) and above need 4 of the exact same SIMMs, you cannot install them in uneven pairs. 3 and 9 chip SIMMs work best (parity) unlike macs which don't care.

The isa cards i want is a soundblaster 1.5 and a mpu clone. Best method is to make a ribbon extender into a breakout chassis.

the inception idea is a good one but the isa extender needs to be created precisely to fit.

I was able to get my hands on a Quantum 1.2gb SCSI drive (hopefully it works - I have one in my external Apple drive and my other IIfx).
The plan is to dedicate 300MB for System 7.1, and 900MB for the OrangePC side (currently have a 250MB Quantum in the IIfx and I’m maxing out on storage lol).
My question is - will my particular 25mhz 486 OrangePC card be able to handle Windows 95? I have the upgrade version on floppies. I don’t really want to deal with DOS 6/Win 3.1 again, but if I must I must.

Sorry, I’m just jumping into this thread, how much ram does this orange PC Card have?
Currently 10MB. Plan to upgrade to 16MB, which I think is the max for this card
I'd do the upgrade then install Win 95. With 10MB, it will probably be a painful experience.
nice i wanna get a orange368going on a iici. waiting for a bluescsi cause zulu is unfriendly in terms of data transfer
bluescsi and zuluscsi are functionally identical. the blue isn't gonna be any friendlier.

Connected my “new” 1.2GB Quantum drive to the IIfx. Although it works, there’s a lot of stuff on it. I tried transferring said stuff to my 9GB Avid/Seagate SCSI drive, but I get this error when I try to mount the drive in SCSIProbe:
Is there a way to update the drivers on the 9GB drive without reformatting it so it works on a 68030? I tried Apple’s HD Setup but it doesn’t see the drive at all.

That sucks. Guess I’ll have to connect the 9GB drive to my 6100, and use AppleTalk to transfer the data over from the 1.2GB drive.
