Hello all.
My father in law has decided on a new 14" iBook and needs to get stuff
from his old Wallstreet II (300 Mhz OS9) to the iBook (OS 10.4?).
I suggested the external USB drive case for the WS hard drive but he
wants to keep the Wallstreet as a backup computer (even though it has a
broken hinge).
The iBook doesn't have SCSI so he can't boot the WS in target disk mode.
Could he boot the iBook in firewire mode and use a firewire PC card to
mount it on the wallstreet? We'd need to find him a firewire card for
the wallstreet.
Could he connect the two computers with an ethernet cable?
It would be slow but we could do it with existing ports.
Do you need a crossover cable or a regular one?
Any links to tutorials?
Thanks
Andrew
