Regarding my earlier note that Linux oughta run on a 68LC040 - well it oughta, but it might not. :) It depends on the machine, or more specifically on the particular CPU revision:
>If you have one of these chips, you may have a defective one that does not >support any kind of FPU (floating-point) emulation. According to Motorola's >official errata, any chip with a mask revision less than 2E71M has the bug. >Specifically, revision 2E23G, used in the LC 475, has been confirmed to be >buggy. ( from <http://www.mac.linux-m68k.org/docs/faq.php#sec-4.5> ) So you might want to check the chip. Or, just install it on th 280 and see if it misbehaves horribly. You can always transplant the drive into a 270. ;) ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net! A listserv for users and fans of Mac subportables.
