Re: [q] botting macos 8.1 cd on a quadra 660av

[Brett Forrester]

i cannot boot the cd on my quadra 660av it is rather bothersome due 
to the fact i need os 8.1.  i cannot boot into macos 7.6.1 and just 
install
As was mentioned in a related set of e-mails today about booting a 
575 from an OS 8.0 CD, try booting your 660AV normally from its own 
hard drive, and then insert the 8.1 CD. Follow this by accessing your 
"Startup Disk" control panel and selecting the OS 8.1 CD. Now when 
you restart, the OS 8.1 CD should take over and provide you an 
installation option. Good luck and keep us informed.

Hi,
I have the white CD marked 1997. I bought it retail
probably in early 1998. I have used it to start up a
quadra 840av and a quadra 800.
My method for starting a computer with a CD is to
first start up from the hard drive. Then put the OS CD
in and choose it from the startup disk control panel.
Then I hit restart. I seem to remember having a
problem starting from the disk by holding down the C
key. I'm not sure though.

David

Try booting from CD by holding [Shift, Option, Command and Delete] keys held
down at same time as computer starts up with CD in drive, this should force
booting from the CD [or any external drive with a suitable OS] and by-passes
the startup hard drive.

I have a Mac OS 8.0 and a 8.1 CD, on both the code numbers begin with the
letter Z tho' they both follow the same x-xxxA scheme. I don't live in
the US, so the numbering may be different because of that.

Re: [q] Printing to USB printers via LPD/desktop printing?

[Andrew W. Hill]

Here's the quadlist part: I'll be printing from my LC-580, so my limit is
Mac OS 8.1. I know the Brother won't be a big deal cause it has LJ4
emulation, but what of the Stylus C84? The problem there is that the C84's
drivers only work with 8.6 or above. I guess what I was hoping for was that
I can just install the drivers on my iBook, copy the PPD from the iBook to
the LC-580, and set it up via LPD. Will this plan of action work?
I didn't think the Stylus C84 was a postscript printer.  In any case, 
PPDs aren't really important.  You ought to try copying the driver 
suite over, but I wouldn't be hopeful.

Re: [q] Quad 700 users, can two or more quads be yoked together?

[Andrew W. Hill]

It's been a couple years, but I remember downloading and playing 
with something that purported to be a 68k multiprocessing setup. It 
had a strange name like Hen and Chicks or some such... I'll have to 
go dig up my Powerbook I was playing with it on and see if it's 
still on there. The main problem is it'd require anything using it 
to be recompiled with its libraries, and as far as I could find at 
the time there hadn't been anything done. I've done a fair bit of 
googling without turning it up, no idea if I'm remembing the name at 
all right :)
The apps used to be called something cutesy, but have been merged 
into a single app called "Pooch".  Limit of four machines without 
paying for it.  I wanted to run 15 LCs together with it, but no go.

Re: [q] Dewad Clock Battery

[Andrew W. Hill]

How does one replace the Clock Batteries in a LC 580 and a Quadra 
700 as well as a LC II
The LC580 takes a different battery than the Q700 and LCII.
580
Pull motherboard out the back.  Locate the battery, probably a 
rayovac on the board.  It's a cube like thing, an inch on the longest 
side (so not quite a cube).  It connects with a wire then its 
velcroed to the board.

Q700 & LCII
Take the top off the case.  I forget where the Q700's is, but the 
LCII's ought to be smack bang in the middle.  It's half the length of 
a AA battery, but otherwise the same shape.  It'll be in a little 
black holder thing.

This op is crazy easy.  If you need real time advice hit up offlist 
for IM or something

Re: [q] Help Identify OS 8.0 CD

[Stephen Alexander]

Not for resale means it was shipped with a mac most likely. The CD may be 
model-specific. Quadlist archives reveal a similar query and response from a 
couple years back:

http://www.mail-archive.com/quadlist%40mail.maclaunch.com/msg03234.html

I got a hit on U97073-052A which appears to be an expired page selling a full 
retail version of OS 8.

That's all I've got, sorry

[q] Help Identify OS 8.0 CD

[Bill Beazley]

Can anyone identify these two OS 8.0 install CDs? Neither CD will boot 
my LC 575, though both will install. Same story on my PM 6500.

1. a mostly white CD "Mac OS 8" copyrighted in 1997. At the bottom of 
the CD appears: "Version 8.0", then below that "691-1600-A", and below 
that "U97073-049A".

2. a CD, top third is white, bottom two-thirds is red, with "What a 
difference 8 makes" on the left middle of the CD. At the bottom appears 
"Not for resale", then below that "Version 8.0", and below that 
"U97073-051A".

Thanks.
