Hey everyone,
Now that I’ve gotten my 9600/200 connected to my network and the
internet, I’ve downloaded XPostFacto in hopes of installing Jaguar on
this machine. I’d like to ditch the stock 4gb SCSI drive in favor
of an
8gb ATA drive I have laying around, so I’m wondering if anyone has
any
knowledge of compatibility issues or has had success with ATA
cards and
XPostFacto. I searched the XPostFacto site and found nothing thus
far.
Basically as long as the ATA card is recognized in OS 9, it will
work with XPF/OSX. The only issue is that the OS X partition will
have to be the 1st one and at most 8GB in size. A good list for
these type of questions is the Unsupported OS X list <http://
lowendmac.com/lists/unsupported.html>.
I ran OS X 10.3.9 on my 9600/350 G3-500 on a paritioned 70 GB drive,
with 3 equal paritions, and had no problems- used the original 4 GB
drive as a back-up OS X boot drive.
YMMV,
Pete
