Re: any requirement for OSX on first 8gb on a Pismo?
Can anyone tell me if OSX 10.4 must be installed on the first 8 gb of a hard drive on a Pismo? I recently upgraded my Pismo's drive to a 60 GB drive and I cloned my 10.3 install to that drive. I did not partition the drive in any way and all works just fine, so I'd have to guess that no, there is no 8 GB limit on the Pismo (not like the way the 1st gen iMac needs OS X in a partition that does not exceed the first 8 GB). -chris http://www.mythtech.net -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: any requirement for OSX on first 8gb on a Pismo?
While it's true the Pismo doesn't have the limit, that it worked in this case isn't a valid test. You can do the same thing to those machines with the limit and it may work. It depends on certain files being located in the first 8Gb. The limit isn't on how big a drive you can have but is based on the boot code being able to load some files only in the first 8Gb. The installer requires that the boot volume be 8Gb to avoid any possibility of the files being outside the 8Gb limit. Very true. My bad on my reply... it originally had a lead in section that mentioned that I originally installed OS X (10.3) on a 12 GB drive that was in the Pismo when I got it about a year ago. Again with no partitioning. I then recently upgraded it to a 60 GB and cloned it when I did so. With my lead in section, it makes it a little more clear that it doesn't appear to have the 8 GB limit. Without it, as you point out, it doesn't really mean much. Where that lead in paragraph went, I have no idea. I'll chalk it up to either distraction when I was editing my reply, or my email client once again ate part of it (for a reason I have yet to figure out, Emailer running under OS X seems to periodically decide the mouse has clicked and dragged instead of just moving over an area... as a result, I periodically loose parts of emails that are selected and then deleted when I press anything on the keyboard, such as the enter key to send the email... don't know why it happens, and although it is very annoying, I've not bothered to spend much time trying to figure it out... with Classic going bye bye on the upcoming Intel based Macs, I'll be forced to leave Emailer behind anyway) -chris http://www.mythtech.net -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: What a bunch of garbage!
I seemed to have mis-placed the trash can in OS9.1. Any ideas on where it might be hiding? FWIW, I can still right-click on an item and put it into the trash, and empty the trash via the pulldown. It may have been pushed off the screen. You can try doing a Clean Up from the Special Menu, or change your screen resolution to something less than it is now, and then back again. That should force all icons to be moved to fit inside the smaller resolution's desktop space, and thus move any off screen back on screen. -chris http://www.mythtech.net -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Pismo DVD/CD-RW drive
I replaced the dying DVD-ROM in my wife's Pismo with a Samsung combo drive from a Dell laptop. I swapped the internals in the caddy and used Patchburn to fully support burning. A little fine sanding and superglue on the bezel and you can hardly tell it's not the original. Can you still play DVD movies with it? I know Patchburn lets you make non Apple burners work with Apple tools, but I wasn't sure if you lost the ability to play DVDs by going with a 3rd party drive. I base this fear on the fact that I can't play DVDs using a 3rd party DVD drive on my iMac DV (its internal DVD drive has eject problems, so I try not to use it much). However, I freely admit that I don't know if the failure is because it is a 3rd party drive, or because it is external. As such, I'm just looking for a confirmation that the Pismo, when using a 3rd party drive to replace the original internal DVD drive, will still allow you to play DVD movies. If I can get that confirmation, I'll take the jump and get myself a DVD/CD-RW drive and make the swap. -chris http://www.mythtech.net -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: going wireless with my wallstreet
tessa, all... I have been going online wirelessly with my 64 MB250 Mhz Kanga G3 now for about a month. It works like a charm, though I want to finish increasing the resident RAM and getting a bigger hard drive. Took finding the virtual memory sweetspot to keep it from bombing periodically and trying out a number of browsers...the most trouble free browser I found was Internet Explorer 5 for Mac OS 9 with double the virtual minimum memory selected. But the essential part was following this fantastic no brainer tutorial (thanks to penmachine!!!): http://www.penmachine.com/techie/airport1400.html As the article showed I could use an inexpensive Dell Truemobile 1150 80211.b WiFi card and I think it took a one click install to to a link in the article get online! I bid on eBay for several days and having little money I won on auction by last minute bid sniping an 1150 for $9 -- does look humorous seeing a Dell logo sticking out of a multiclored Apple logo'd G3 laptop, but the desktop shows a 3rd party Orinoco gold card and there's 4 or 5 green signal strength bars at the bottom of the screen. Wonderfull I enjoy using this so much, I am taking the G3 on a low budget dream trip out of country and will blog it online wirelessly, so no reason to be satisfied with just email capability. Besides if your Dad can surf with a 100 Mhz Winblows laptop, then don't quit until you can do that (and more) with a Wallstreet. For instance, once online I found an old version of iTunes (version 2.04) and also use Audion, for Internet radio and CD's/mp3's -- all free.

Re: Tiger on Pismo and Lombards
Tiger runs fine on a Lombard. Installing it is the trick, and requires a new world Mac. You can install it on an external disk connected to Mac with built-in firewire, or install it on Mac with built-in firewire and swap the drive into the Lombard.

Slot loading burner in G3 iBook
Anyone installed a slot-loading CD/DVD burner in a G3 iBook? Anyone know if there any pics of such a G3 iBook on the web? I know that the burner would fit physically, just wanted to see how it looks. Lots of cheap Superdrive options out there, I was thinking of the slot-loader given the difficulty of finding a tray-loader with compatible bezel. Also, as someone mentioned at xlr8yourmac (who installed a slot-loader), the slot-loader is more convenient than a tray loader. I might tend to agree, given the AC port on our G3/800 iBook is so close to the tray, that when you open the tray it inevitably hits or comes close to the power cord. Re. 3rd party burners, is it correct to say that they must be set to Slave to work properly in the G3 iBooks? Chris P.S. I've seen the UJ-845 8x burner with Dual Layer support at 100 Euro or so, so super cheap.

Re: Hard Drive upgrade choices
Greetings list, I am a recent subscriber and first time poster. A few months ago I bought my first ever laptop/notebook, a 1.2 G4 14 iBook, and while I'm still adjusting to the kb I love not being tied to my desk. The fix it guides previously mentioned at http://www.pbfixit.com/Guide/ also have printable screw guides. You print it out for your model and it has marked locations for each screw type of each step. I wish I had known about it when I replaced the HD in a clamshell iBook for my GF's son, I still have a leftover screw and a vacant screw hole that do not mate. But I figure if I can do that with no prior experience whatsoever, someone who has worked on PC's and Power Macs probably can do it on a modern iBook. I've heard that they are not as difficult as they used to be. Regards, Chris Support our troops. Bring them home alive. On Feb 16, 2005, at 19:59,John C.

I love the 12 form factor for travel, work in non-desk situations (plane, train, coffee shop, airport, living room sofa, etc.) and for when you're at home/office, a nice 17 external TFT monitor (they have really come down in price too!) gives you a superb 29 of screen real estate (if you have monitor spanning, which even my wife's G3/900 iBook has, thanks to the spanning hack) all for a lot less than the $3000 sticker price of a 30-inch cinema HD!

Pismo max ram and floppy options
I've got a PowerBook G3/500 Firewire model (Pismo). I'm running OS X.3 on it, but it spools the hard drive OFTEN which drags performance to a halt. Currently it has 256 MB ram. So I want to max out the ram, but I'm unsure if the max is 512 or 1024. Apple and EveryMac claim 512. However, I know Apple often specs the max lower then it really is (they spec based on what could be tested when the unit was released, so if 256 was the largest chip size in 2000, they will claim it tops out at 512 (2x 256)). LowEndMac claims 1024 is the max, as does Crucial.com. Before I spend $200 getting a pair of 512 chips, I wanted to know if anyone was actually running 1024 successfully in a Pismo (and are there any gotchas I should be aware of). Also, as long as I am on the Pismo topic, I want to get a floppy drive for it. I found an Apple Tech Note that says the Pismo can use the Lombard drive modules (but not always the other way around). I was under the impression the Lombard has a floppy drive available for it. Can anyone confirm that I can in fact use a Lombard floppy in my Pismo? I'd rather get a floppy drive that uses the drive bay over a USB based one. Or does anyone know of a 3rd party floppy drive module that works with the Pismo?

Re: Pismo max ram and floppy options
I have a Pismo with a G4 500 and 1 gig of ram runs very nice! It can be done. Thanks Pismos can indeed take 1GB of ram. I've been running 10.3.5 on a 400mhz with 1GB quite happily for a while now. A few months after I installed the ram I also upgraded to a 7200rpm 40gb Hitachi drive and I was surprised by how much difference there was between it and the old 4200rpm drive. and Thanks. I am also considering upgrading the HDD. I figured I'd start with the RAM and see how that does (most of my slowness I know is because of it spooling data to the hard drive, I can hear the drive seeking... so RAM should help that quite a bit) -chris http://www.mythtech.net -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

I had a Kanga for a short period of time. The Kanga requires a specific memory board, not the usual SIMMs-DIMMs-whateverIMMs that are in used today. Since it's specific to it, there isn't a lot of places that still carry those. And if you would find one, it would be very expensive. To the point that if you add the money that you would spend on a 64 MB board for that Kanga, plus the money you would get from selling the Kanga, you could probably buy a 1st generation PowerBook G3 Series...

Unfortunately, I don't. Don't force your keyboard. My memory might be playing tricks and it might not by removing the keyboard that you can have access to the motherboard. It's been too long since I had it. You might want to do some research on Google and see if you can find anything about it. If I'm not mistaken the Kanga was a bastardized descendant of the 3400 except with a new(ish) motherboard and a G3 processor.

Be careful when you insert the ram card and make sure that it is seated properly? once seated the best thing to do is start the mac without securing the keyboard first just put it in place, if the mac boots then you did it right.

OT:Can anyone recommend MCE service.
Hello, I'm looking to upgrade my ibooks hard drive. It looks to be quite an involved operation so I'm looking for recommendations for people to do this for me. MCE is one company I found in the back of Macworld and they are pretty close to where I live. Has anyone delt with them or can anyone recommend someone in the Orange County, CA area?

Memory allocation question OS X.
Hello, I have an OS X memory question. I am getting an out of memory message from the email app I use Musashi. It happens when I try and open the trash to look at old emails. Does anyone know if it's possible to allocate more memory to the app or am I going to have to empty the trash and start from scratch? Chris -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Anyone Have Problems with Mac OS 10.1.5
James said at ÒAnyone Have Problems with Mac OS 10.1.5Ó. [06/05/2002 19:23:54] I had a problem last night that might be related to 10.1.5. The my 500mhz Ti would not wake up. The only sign of life was the white light that shows at the bottom of the screen would fade in and out. I had to use the reset on the back to turn it off as no other key commands would work. I've since turned off all sleep options but haven't used it enough yet to say if that helps. Hope this helps, Chris When someone irritates you, remember that it takes 73 muscles in your face to frown, but only 6 muscles in your arm to reach out and smack him upside the head. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: How does a crossover cable differ?
I'm not sure how you use it, but a crossover cable has opposite wiring on each end for example the wire would be red/blue/green on one end and green/ blue/red on the other.
