I dont know why you would partition a 40gb hard drive into 8gb chunks.
Have been following this thread with a view to doing something similar on
our hugely upgraded pet 5300C - so today I partitioned the drive and
installed OS 8.5 on one 1.5gb partition and OS 9 on one 2gb partition,

(I'd probably be better off buying a
5300c outright - or even a 3400!)
You probably would. 3400s and even Kangas are going for what I consider dirt
cheap prices lately. I saw a Kanga for $160 on eBay last night. That's a
heck of a price for a G3 PowerBook.

Mine worked fine with the full 40gb in one partition.
I was about to ask that. But perhaps something to do with wanting to
run 7.6? Didn't it have a limit?
And, FYI, I think my 3400 feels about 10% faster with the new 20G
7.6.1 ran fine on my single partition

better: Firewire? Thank you for your answer(s)!
FW works fine on my 3400s:

I did read a while back that the extensions can be mess about with to speed
up the Mac but i do not really think that this is needed in most cases .

Can also get Conflict Catcher and winnow out unnecessary ext's.
Also can disable startup

My 9.1 install was pretty typical. It took 30 - 36MB (out of 48)

You can't: you'll have to buy it. Try the LEM Swap List or (not as good)

Indeed they have. You should search the archive for answers, as
these topics have been discussed repeatedly. The OS topic, for

OS 9.1 doesn't take 60Mb on my PB5300 (64Mb installed), more like
20Mb. I've heard that it uses an amount proportional to available
RAM. I know this is true for the Disk Cache but my understanding is
that it is for more than that.
Running 9.0.4 and 9.1 on my Wallstreet w/ 96MB RAM, I lost
Still, I'm impressed that you can get 9.1 down to 20MB of RAM. I'd
love to hear what you have installed in the way of system
components...

Again, 9 takes a proportion of resident RAM. On my 1400 with the maxed

1. Is the best system to run on a powerbook 3400c 80/200 mhz system 8.6 or 9.2?
2. Can I just plug in a pcmcia card which offers a usb connection to see if
the laptop will give me a usb connection, or
PB 3400s are not G3s, so they cannot run beyond 9.1. It runs fine on
mine w/ 144mb RAM.
I'm pretty sure a USB/PCMCIA card will work fine as well as a
Firewire2Go card. After I got my 3400 I read a lot of info on whether
the slot (top slot) was cardbus compliant. MCE offers a cardbus
