Re: Powerbook 5300cs

2002-12-05 Thread Gerald S . Abreu
A scsi cd rom will work fine. But are you sure you want to install 9? 
It's pretty slow on the 5300 but it can be installed and does work.

HTH,

 Hello list

   I'm pretty new to the Mac world so please bear with me. I just 
 repaired a Powerbook 5300cs and so far it works great, but now I want 
 to start doing the geek thing, home network , INTERNET, installations 
 and the like. Problem is I havn't found a manual or any HowTo's. Can 
 someone direct me to a good site with a lot of info on the 5300. Next 
 how do I install Mac OS 9 without a built in CDROM? Can I use the 
 built in SCSI port and connect a SCSI CDROM and install from there?  
 My first thought was to us a pcmcia ethernet card and connect to my 
 PowerMac and share the CDROM, but the tcp/ip setup is password 
 protected and of course I don't have the password.  So I want to 
 install a fresh OS and go from there.

 Any information would be welcomed
 TNX
 Marty

Re: OS 9.1 on a 5300?

2002-08-22 Thread Gerald S. Abreu

9.1 ran ok on my 5300. But I like the way 8.6 with ram doubler and speed 
doubler run. Also it seems that all the junk from M$ slowed down my 
5300. So I've trashed it and it seems to have a slight speed boost.
