Exactly. You may find a internal Ethernet extension by coincidence on eBay. It will be detected during boot and therefore usable by the miBoot floppy image (this is why my PB5300 and potentially the Performa 5200 works for that approach). For support Ethernet devices, see http://nubus-pmac.sourceforge.net/8390net.html > Florian, I have a question regarding the disassembly of the 1400: When > you remove the speaker grille, do you have to unscrew that metal panel > on the right?

Just lift the keyboard at the upper edge along the functions keys. When you remove the grill, you should immediately see a black painted metal bar with four screws in it. When you unscrew these and another two hidden under the keyboard, you gain access to the CPU, memory extensions and the yet unused extension port. There is a fine manual from Apple: http://manuals.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Manuals/powerbooks/0309034APB1400UM.PDF See pages 151 - 175. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=50593 Cheers, Florian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
