Just picked up a Wallstreet a couple days ago. 266MHz, 64MB, 2GB drive.
I bumped the RAM to 256MB and stuck in an 18GB Toshiba drive I had. The
drive was partitioned as 6GB 11GB. I installed OS9.2.1 on the 6GB
partition. It boots up and runs fine (except for the damned sleep issue

I believe you've inadvertently diagnosed your own problem. If I remember
correctly, PRAM settings [including date and time] are stored in the battery
pack. If you remove the battery, you have approximately 10 minutes to put
it back in or lose your settings.

But the hitch is this - it's apparently cheaper to buy the 40+ GB drive
IN the external enclosure than to buy just the drive (for internal use)
and an empty enclosure.

Hi all,
I've been considering (when the funds are saved up) upgrading my Pismo's
'10GB' Toshiba drive. However, not wanting to waste the old drive (heck,

Remember the warranty on a pre-assembled drive is usually only 1 year,
Truly, I see no reason to purchase a pre-assembled drive whatsoever

Good point, Dan. I paid little for the 3GB pocket drive two years
ago, and
I am using a SMC wireless card with an Airport Base Station (Snow) and
a Wallstreet with OS 10.2.1. I am using the WirelessDriverBeta software
from sourceforge.net and after considerable wrangling with settings etc
I have managed to get up and running on the Net. OS 10.2.1 has Internet
Connect
Anyone know of any email lists out there pertaining to the Airport Base
Station?

Thanks for your suggestion, Mark.
Sounds like a good idea. Will keep it in mind.
