This is very interesting - When i recently got my used 3400c, It had
7.5.1 on it, and I installed 8.5 from a regular CD that I got long ago
to use in my 9500. Is there any real advantage to a Powerbook version of
an OS? I can get the Ethernet and modem and all working just fine the
way it is, though I plan to upohgrade it to 8.6...

Thanks,

Lou

Charles, 

When I had 8.6 on my 3400, I installed it from a
Wallstreet Restore CD...  Pretty much just like you've
done from the Lombard's.  THe only thing I had to add
was the 3400 Modem/Ethernet extension.

Why don;t you disable or uninstall Conflict Catcher
and see if the operation is successful...

Cheers,
Sionnach

You might try turning off conflict catcher and getting it out of your way.

system in 3400

[Charles Siegel]

Thanks to help for several people here a few days ago, I just managed 
to put the old original hard drive from my Lombard in my old 3400. 
All the deconstructions went very somothly and it works just 
fine.sort of.

I don't have the original 3400 Install CD.  Are there special bits in 
the system that one can only get from that disk?  Will a system 8.6 
installed from the Lombard install disk work?

Originally, when turned on with the new hard drive, the 3400 worked 
just fine, but wouldn't connect to my LAN.  Didn't surprise me, 
because I knew the system 8.6 that was on the hard drive I had just 
installed did not have the 'Powerbook G3/3400 modem' extension in the 
system folder.  So I put one in, and it still didn't want to connect 
to the LAN.

So I did a clean install of 8.6 from the Lombard CD.  It connected 
just fine to the LAN.

Then I installed Conflict Catcher 8, and rebooted to do a clean 
install merge.  Three times it has now crashed in the middle of the 
clean install merge, always with a 'conflict catcher extension has 
caused an unimplemented trap error' message.  Usually that happens 
when I am selecting which files to move over.  Once I decided to move 
them all, and then it happened 4-5 seconds into the merge.  I even 
uninstalled CC to see if it was somehow corrupt.  The I reinstalled 
it and the same thing happened.

Anyone have any idea what is going on and/or what I should do about it?
