    BlueSCSI v2 - DaynaPORT WiFi!

    @eric Your WiFi DaynaPORT page says to use the following text as a template for the bluescsi.ini file content... [SCSI] WiFiSSID=MyWiFi WiFiPassword=pass123 # Optional - Each Pico-W will generate its own MAC address, so normally not needed. # WiFiMACAddress=00:80:19:C0:FF:EE But my WIFI...

    WarpSE: 25 MHz 68HC000-based accelerator for Mac SE

    Sadly, it seems the answer is no. I sent numerous private emails to Zane and Garrett during the 7 weeks I spent making my ROM SIMM video, and I did not receive a reply. Zane did send a single email to our ROM SIMM group at the very beginning, but nothing thereafter. Very disappointing because...

    BlueSCSI v2 - DaynaPORT WiFi!

    @eric Here's my step-by-step feedback about flashing BSv2 via USB CABLE. 1. As I thought, it's not as fun as the SD Card method would probably be because you have to fiddle around finding a cable that will actually work. Thankfully, I finally did, but it took a while. This isn't a gripe as...

    BlueSCSI v2 - DaynaPORT WiFi!

    I realize that FB doesn't always get me fast answers (although it often does), but 2 other people over there on FB said the SD card method didn't work for them. In light of that feedback, perhaps by adding a single sentence note saying "If this method does not work for you, it is likely your...

    BlueSCSI v2 - DaynaPORT WiFi!

    The IIci that I purchased recently from a vintage Mac enthusiast based in Canada kindly included that BlueSCSIv2 inside the machine. It otherwise works perfectly fine. I simply cannot use the SD card method of changing the firmware. So far on FaceBook, two other people confirmed they cannot...

    BlueSCSI v2 - DaynaPORT WiFi!

    As is common for pretty much anything I do in life, I am having trouble on Step-1, which is mentioned in the Github page linked in my previous post. It says to do this... "1. Download the beta firmware file and follow these instructions to update the firmware of your BlueSCSI v2." So I...

    BlueSCSI v2 - DaynaPORT WiFi!

    Steve, when I clicked your link above today, and it opened something named "Create new page." After a little digging through the site, it seems like you were wanting to link to the following page... https://github.com/BlueSCSI/BlueSCSI-v2/wiki/WiFi-DaynaPORT

    DaynaPort E/II-T NuBus Ethernet card — MANUAL needed

    I acquired a DaynaPort E/II-T NuBus Ethernet card for my Mac IIci, and the drivers for it are found on Macintosh Garden here: https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/daynaport-drivers QUESTION: I can't find the MANUAL anywhere. Do any of you have it? Pretty crazy but I can't even find it on the old...

    I sent @Bolle a private message on Discord yesterday, linking this thread for him to review.

    Flux residue cleaner recommendations?

    While reviewing the datasheet of a coupled-inductor for one of my switch-mode power supply designs today, I noted the following warning... Of course, I have known about these warnings on other ferrite core components, but it only dawned on me today that many people in the vintage Mac...

    68k Mini vMac booting SCSI Device images

    Folks, one of the big improvements @eric made to the Apple Silicon versions of Mini vMac is they now work with unformatted disk images created either by the "dd" command in the OS X Terminal app, or blanks made by Doug Brown's SIMM Programmer app. Being able to use BlueSCSI images in Mini vMac...

    68k Mini vMac booting SCSI Device images

    For people such as myself who considers the Terminal akin to using DOS, I am one to view it as so inconvenient that I am not inclined to use it at all. But such is probably true of most Mac users. Not sure which MacOS version killed HFS, but my late 2015 5K iMac running MacOS Mojave cannot...

    68k Mini vMac booting SCSI Device images

    I can use my FloppyEMU's HD20 DSK images just fine in Mini vMac (mounting, booting, etc.), regardless of size, so I don't know what trouble you are having with those. It's just one of the Mini vMac BLANKS that I mounted in Mini vMac and later added System 6 and my own favorite files. The best...

    68k Mini vMac booting SCSI Device images

    I'm not a "computer" programmer and I don't know the C language, but I did read ALL the Mini vMac content at the link you provided, @eric. "InvisibleUp" goes into detail about the problems he had on Windoze (the proper spelling, BTW), so I chuckled through that part because I don't do Windoze...

    68k Mini vMac booting SCSI Device images

    Thank you for the CC, altering me to this thread! My own emails to Paul Pratt have never been answered. In light of all the hard work he put into Mini vMac and Gryphel, it is my best guess that Paul must have passed away. And sadly, it would appear that none of his relatives are aware of his...

    ROM Clips for securing custom ROM SIMMs in an SE/30

    In that case, simply be sure not to add too much solder. It's hard to quantify how much is too much though, because if you don't add enough, adding solder doesn't work. Adding too much will create tiny blobs on each pad of the ROM SIMM. The pins on the motherboard socket will slowly embed...

    @PotatoFi I apologize for the delay. I just added a pinned comment under my video to announce you fabulous improved design, with a link to this thread. THANK YOU!

    So you wanna start an SE/30 Reloaded group buy...

    @Bolle In light of all that Colin went through, can the "non-commercial" terms you established be modified to make group buys much easier? If not, could you, perhaps, start selling mostly populated boards? What we do at my workplace (we make mostly electronic security systems, mind you, and...

    ROM Clips for securing custom ROM SIMMs in an SE/30

    Obtaining ROM clips is a problem especially because companies in China like JLCPCB refuse to print things that small! I know because I tried and failed to order them. That’s why I think it would be great if every ROM SIMM vendor could obtain the proper permissions to distribute the Clips, a...
