Hello all; long time reader / watcher of the list; just joined!
With the Rev. C module in the Powerbook 500-series, the thing to watch out
for is accidently installing the PCMCIA software for the Rev. A or B modules
(v.1.0 ?) while the Rev C is installed. Doing so will muss up the ROM in the
Re-posting as I think our mail server was acting up yesterday

Has anyone got a Proxim (Farallon) SkyLine card on a 540c ? I have tried
installing the drivers but it just shows as an unrecognised card, the readme
says it works on a 190, 1400, and 5300 OS 7.5 or higher, but no mention of
540.
My config is PB540c with 40Mb, 700Mb HDD, OS 7.6.1, rev 'B'
I think the problem may be the rev.B card adapter, Ben. IIRC, you need
the Rev. C to have it work properly. I do happen to have this setup,
(rev. C and the skyline card) and it worked flawlessly right after I
installed the software.
Later.Howard

My config is PB540c with 40Mb, 700Mb HDD, OS 7.6.1, rev 'B' cardcage with
rev 1 software.
Not possible, as if you REALLY have 40 MB RAM, you HAVE to have a
PPC processor, and if so, the Rev. B cardcage won't work. I do have a Rev
C around here somewhere, BTW.
