 You can use the Airport software to setup a machine as a Software Base

Non-Apple wireless base stations are very cheap now ($150 or so), you'd

Hmmm

The easiest solution would be to get MacDrive for your wife's laptop ( 
http://www.mediafour.com ), so her computer can read the Mac formatted 
disk, and mount it as an hfs disk under Linux, which should be doable, 
though you might have to cobble the drivers from the darwin source, if 
your linux distro doesn't have them.

This is a file system issue, not a terminal or unix issue. the Mac OS 
HFS+ filesystem is not case-sensitive. It's not alone... there are 
other unix's I've worked on that behaved this way.

You won't be able to use OS X either. :)

You could format as UFS, but I'd advise against it; not only will

 I Recently bought an expansion bay drive housing (MCE brand) for my

 instructions were clear and it was not difficult.  I also appreciated
 that the manufacturer even includes a wee screwdriver with the

 ribbon cable will break, so don't plan on frequently swapping
 mechanisms.   Another nice thing about this housing, aside from the
 convenience of being an internal (expansion bay) device, is that it

Forgive the long quote, but I wonder if anyone else has experience with

Also. Way off topic, I'm interested in using Direct TV or Dish Network

hardware for Mac) Is there a work-around? TIA. Billy

UFS stands for UNIX File System but that's kind of a misnomer; not 
many UNIX's use UFS. It's -a- BSD filesystem, but there are plenty of 
others. BSD is a very (VERY) large family of UNIX's, all of which 
are about a similar to each other as Windows 3.1 is to Windows 98SE.

UFS in OS X stems from NeXTStep and, IIRC, is provided for backwards 
compatibilities mostly for developers (that's how it was explained to 
me at WWDC a couple of years ago).

ext2 is the filesystem used (primarily) by Linux OS's. There is no 
single, universal filesystem used by UNIX OS's. There's pretty much a 
unique FS for every UNIX out there.

Re: date/time reset when starting w/no extensions

2002-03-20 Thread BG

I have an iBook here that's doing the same thing, i.e., every time I turn it
on, it tells me the date is 1904, even though I have reset the time/date
several times.  Did anyone answer Todd on this?  I'm on digest also.

Thanks/BG

Subject: date/time reset when starting w/no extensions
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

G4 PowerBook 550Mhz, 512 MB RAM, Rev. B
When I boot in OS9 with extensions off to rebuild desktop, or for other
reasons, the date resets to 1904, as if the PRAM battery were dead. Upon
booting back up with extensions on, the date is still 1904.

Thanks, todd

Re: Pismo Expansion Bay Hard Drive (housing)

2002-03-20 Thread Gary D. Adams

I just picked up a VST Expansion Bay drive from SmartDisk on Monday for $50.
It's a 10gb drive, and so far it works like a charm.


 Hi:
 Forgive the long quote, but I wonder if anyone else has experience with
 these enclosures? I believe others have mentioned these drives hanging
 resulting in their machines overheating.

http://www.smartdisk.com

They had 10 early in the day, which sold out. They then offered 30 more which
also sold out. I don't think they have any in stock. Dealmac.com featured these
on their web site early in the day with a 10% discount, which is probably why
they sold out so quickly. You could keep checking back until they get more in
stock.

Re: Questioning reality in fire wire drives

2002-03-20 Thread John Featherstone

You can partition to multiple Operating systems under some formatting
software. The dialogue boxes of some formatting software (I've several, and
don't recall which specifically) do ask whether the said multiple partitions
are going to be all mac, or mac and pc etc. I think even the Apple
formatting software will let you do it.

Yeah, thanks for that. I hadn't read the read me but its pretty apparent

That must account for the OS 9.0.4 partition  working just fine with Toast
and my QueFire since those add ins weren't there in that version.

I may have to learn to either neuter the new functions, or learn to live
without Toast, and use apple's proprietary software, or continue to live
under OS 9.1 or less.  I did try to rename the extensions to get them to
load first. I was one of those for whom it didn't work.

Contrary to some of the reply posts, the Newer FireWire 2 Go card seems just

to corroborate what you are telling me.

situation where one client I built a site for got sweet talked by a
competing fellow. He downloaded the site I created from my server and put it
up on his own. Then the client dumped me for him.

Clean Install and Type 12 Errors on Lombard

2002-03-20 Thread James Cox

I have been working on a friend's Lombard here in India, and originally
after working fine for a year or so, she developed a problem receiving
email only on that computer.  It would always show a TCP/IP error message.
After doing a clean install of 9.0 and upgrading to 9.2 (physical trashing
of the TCP/IP extension was required however, as the clean install didn't
seem make the change automatically), the receiving email problem has been
rectified, but now we get a type 12 error whenever applications try to
load.  Has anyone had this problem.  Fixes?
