Hey Bruce
Hmmmm when I first started up Mail and tried to import, I didn't have OE for a choice. What is "iirc"?
Oh crap, that may be a Panther Mail thing; if you're running Jaguar it may be different.
'iirc' = 'If I Recall Correctly'
I don't know how to make sure the backside cache is enabled in OSX, guess I should do some more reading on Sonnet's web page, Eh?
I know on my Beige I used PowerLogix cache Controller X with my OWC upgrade; the Sonnnet should have come with something. Without the backside cache running a G4 system goes reeeeeeaaaaaallll slooooow.
And Dave, I cannot get into Classic at ALL - it tries very hard and almost gets there, but gets stuck at the very end (the progression bar just stays there and nothing else happens).
Are you using your old OS 9 folder? Try starting with minimal extensions. You can get there via the System Preferences Classic settings.
Another funny thing on OSX - I have a scanner and my dvd-rom drive on a scsi card and the scanner shows up like 5 times as ID 5, the dvd-drive only once as ID4. I remember way back when if you put something on ID0 it would show up a million times on your desktop, is that a variation of that? Works great, however.
I've seen scanners that did that. Our Nikon slide scanner was a PITA that way.
Can I use the disk repair utility on my Jaguar install disk on the totally updated Jaguar on the hard drive?
Disk repair you do booted from the CD; Repair Permissions you do from the updated system.

Well Bruce all is well now for the most part. A wonderful friend who does mac help for a living got me going and most of my email is transferred now. Actually I tried to import my old email into thunderbird and OE was not a choice. But it was a choice in apple mail.
Found the cache thing for the sonnet, it's much better now.
Oh of course got into classic, Jim just went there (remote controlling my Mac! Amazing!) and did it. Magic touch I guess...
OK got it straight about disk repair and permissions.
And mail insists on being a bottom-poster. Any way to circumvent that (putting the sig line above the quotes instead of below)? Have Pogue's missing manual and steinberg's moving to osx painlessly. Nothing in either one.
Thanks Bruce!
