I downloaded the A/UX boot floppy. In FreeBSD, on a PC, I used dd if=aux-boot.bin of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k. However, when I tried booting it from a SE/30, it didn't work. Not sure what's going on. Any info? |

Do you have access to a Mac? If so, just use Disk Copy's "Make Floppy" command.As for FreeBSD, can you write a floppy in the way you've described without screwing up the Mac data fork/resource fork dual file structure? Matt No rank Current king of my 68k realm:

Does SE/30 even support AUX?Seems like an old beast for AUX.

I thought that the SE/30 supported A/UX anyway....tBoJ, an SE/30 is not a "beast" for A/UX, especially if the IIsi isn't... and there's only a 4 MHz speed difference from a IIsi and a SE/30, and the IIsi almost shipped with a 25MHz processor, rather than a 20MHz, but y'all know the story about nto competing with the IIci  (iici could've been for graphics, the IIsi for audio work, and both 25MHz and no competition I'd think...)
