Re: Lombard zip disk works here with extension version 6.0.6

2005-06-02 Thread Andrew in Ann Arbor

 I recently did a clean install of OS 9.2.2 upgrading from 9.1.
 Since then
 my internal VST zip disk doesn't see a disk in it until I have
 rebooted with disk inserted.

I just checked my Lombard (sleeping since yesterday).
Inserted the VST zip module and put in a disk and it mounted it right away.
The lombard is system 9.04 updated to 9.1 then 9.2.1 then 9.2.2.

The Iomega extension is iomega driver update Mac OS 9 version number 
6.0.6 dated August 18 1999.
I had to find the extension in the system folder and get information to 
get the version number, it wasn't shown in extension manager.

Re: Can't boot from external firewire drive

hmm, well, my firewire drive works ok, i can boot from it, but i  
installed the OS direct to it, and then added all my files and

I just found out (from IOGear Tech Support) that these drives (model  
GHD135C80) are not bootable. They are refusing to do anything about  
this, or to help me in any way, since they were not advertised as  
bootable. I'm moving up the chain, with the V.P. and President out  
of the office today. I spoke with one supervisor who will run my  
request (for some kind of exchange/upgrade) by the V.P. first thing  
Monday when he gets back into town, and personally call me then.


So, we'll see what will happen then.

In the meantime, I'll offer some advice I wish I had before buying  
these drives: If you need an external drive to be bootable, make sure  
that you get that verified before you make the purchase!

Harry Corsover

A firewire drive that isn't bootable - that's sorta like a TV that  
can't be connected to cable or a car that won't drive on a freeway.  
Rattle their chains - it isn't for us to determine whether a firewire  
drive is bootable or not. If a firewire drive isn't bootable it is up  
to them to mark the drive in BIG letters as not bootable.


I've just added that company to my never buy from list. If they wind  
up treating you 100% right I'll move them to my last resort list.

When you say clean install...do you mean you wipe out everything on the HD
to upgrade? fonts apps etc?

Is that necessary?

Can i just do an upgrade after a diskwarrior rebuild?

Actually, in the context of OS 9 a 'clean install' gives you a fresh  
new un-mucked with system folder. Your old system folder is called  
'Previous System' and you can manually transfer your third party  
extensions, preferences, fonts, etc from it to the new System folder.


A mild hassle, and not really necessary, unless you had a problematic  
system to start with; with 8.6 - 9.n Apple had the Upgrade down pat,  
it worked quite well.

My gosh - I've always assumed a FW drive bootable unless marked 
otherwise! Now I know I am wrong. I hope you get some action.
