Software for Sonnet Crescendo 604e?

[bakkus]

Greetings all!
Buried in a 7100 I ran across this thing:


After some research, it turns out this is a Sonnet 604e processor upgrade for the x100 series PDS slot.

I now have it mounted in my 8100, and it didn't blow up!
Unfortunately it's not working either.

I might be mistaken, but from what I gather the Sonnet Crescendo/Encore software such as 2.3.1 only contains extensions for their G3 series.
Even 1.4.2 which is the oldest I could find only mentions G3s.

I see old whispers on the Internet talking about using Sonnet Crescendo v1.0.3 - but where to find it?
I've checked the Garden, Mac Driver Museum and around archive.org.

Any clues?

These any use?

Had another go at the Wayback Machine, and was able to find a copy version 1.2.4 which works!
I've uploaded it to the Garden along with some information.
Documenting here too, so that others might struggle less than I did.

I'll give both of them a try and report back.
