I think the best way is to do a clean install. Also I think 7.5 will be
peppier than 8.
I'm currently running 7.5.5 on my 5300ce even though I could run
Someone with more knowledge may have a better answer, but I think you
can boot from the floppy then make a ram disk, copy over the system
from the floppy and boot from the ram disk and then maybe install the
cd operating system. YMMV, and good luck.

Actually I'm running 9.2.2 on my 3400c 240mhz ram maxed out and it's
quite a bit zippier than 8.6 or 9.1. The finder is much, much faster.
I would recommend at least trying 9.2.2 if you can.

I can't find this information in the original user manual or the

Hello,
We had a discussion not long ago about re-packing battery packs in 1400's.
But what I would like to know, is if one goes to the trouble of having the
battery inside the battery pack replaced, is it not possible to put a
different type of battery in?? Like a Li-Ion for example. Anyone know
experience. Thanks,
Gerald

Yep, which means it's also 1.1 on your 8500 unless you've hacked X on

Hi Folks!
I'm new to powerbooks and this list and hope I can tap all your apparent
wisdom. I recently acquired an excellent loaded PB 3400/180, and would

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.

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.
