Re: pbk 3400 ram suits Kanga also?

Hello, Could someone please confirm that the 128 mb ram module for the powerbook 3400 would also work in the Kanga? Thanks. I don't remember the size of the module, but I put a 3400 module into my Kanga, no problem. Dan Scanlan -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.c

Re: 3400 ram in a Kanga?

I'm thinking of putting a Kanga MB (original G3/250) in my 3400/240. I know this will fit, but does anyone know for sure that I can use my old 3400 ram card with the new Kanga MB? When my 3400 died, I bought a Kanga and put the memory from the 3400 in it. No problem. Dan Scanlan -- Power

Re: PB 1400 questions

Hmm. Well, I don't know about booting from an internal Zip. The one in my Wallstreet needs the Iomega driver to mount, so I don't know how one would boot from it since the driver loads during boot. Can't you leave a zip disk with both the iomega driver and system/finder on it, declare it the sta

Re: Slow Booting Kanga

The original system software that shipped with the G3 Kanga was OS 8. Apple has its own UDF Volume Access extension, and that extension you see loading at start-up may be something leftover from a Toast installation, as someone mentioned above, although I do not know if that is the problem. Still
