I'm trying to use a ide-cf adapter with a powerbook duo, a duo 210, with
additional scsi-ide adapter, but it seems that i've some problems
because the system doesn't find any hard drive connected!
I've tried the ide-cf with a thinkpad and it works, but i would like to
use it in my duo...
Here's a photo of the cards inside my duo:

There's a 8 dip switch... i don't know what to do with this...
btw, as i turn on the duo, the scsi led flashes and then flashes also
the cf led.
I boot from an external hd (id: 4) but when i try to load utilities for
hd formatting i can't see anything!
Then i've tried to connect a small (80mb) ide hd to the scsi converter
and when i turn on the duo the scsi led starts to flash (and continue
flash until i turn off the pb) but the hd stays off (no spinning drive
noise).
Maybe the problem is in the scsi adapter configuration... do i have to
change that 8 dip configuration?
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Andrea.

Hi Mad dog
Its vicki here in the UK i have been trying to get the duo 2300 to
see a compact flash wifi card using the internal ide connector
linked to a compact flash to ide adapter. The system is running 9.1
off of a 10gb ide drive connected to a scsi adapter and hooked to the
internal scsi connector.
It see's the CF drive if i use a CF memory card in the slot but will
not see the wifi card attached so ,i thought if there was a cf to
ethernet card then there would be another option.
I can boot the duo via the cf card also if i want and it extends the
battery life by hour's so it will come in handy for my daughter to
take notes in the school library when she is studying and also give
me an excuse for her to leave my 2400 alone.

Hi that is another possibility seeing as the internal wifi has not
seemed to work.
I will start to look for a cf to ethernet adapter does anyone know
if they do them.
