Hello,
I have several 7200 PPC machines that I'm adding hard drives for raid1.
One little problem. I'm running out of these plastic drive guides.
I doubt that Apple is still selling them, and I'm not sure where to start
looking for them. Can someone point me in the right direction?
TIA,
Mike

Hello,
I am attempting to compile a 2.2.19 kernel for a promise udma66 ide

Michel, what else I need to do for a working Promise UDMA66 on PPC?

Hi,
I'm trying to get a raid setup on my ppc 7200/120. I've been able to
put two 1.2gb drives inside, I've patched my 2.2.19 kernel, and I've
made a raid1 device.
The problem is that it won't autodetect the raid devices. Is it
possible to have root-raid on ppc? I'd guess I need to change

from it.
The only problem I can think of would be the executable format of the boot

Hi,
I have a bunch of 7200 Macs that I want to turn into servers, and I'm having
trouble getting them to boot without the monitor. I've tried it on a
7300 and a beige g3, and they work fine without a monitor.
Are there any tricks that will let me do this? Maybe a resistor or
something that will

Don't tell me you only have cpu <= 486? Did I miss understand you to think
that you haven't used PCI on x86? Linux is great on old hardware, but even

Hi,
I have a zip250 parrilel port drive, and I wonder if there is a way to get
to work with a mac. I want to put up a little drive sharing comp under
linux, and I have an abundance of oldworld macs after the transition to PCs.
If not, I'll have to use a PC instead.

It looks like we'll be getting more drivers faster :) Hopefully, they won't
have to sign NDAs or release binary-only drivers.

I've tried it with 2.2.19, which is newer that pre17.
