MONO is meant to be a 280x192 black & white image instead of 140x192 color image.
The MONO and HGR and DHR examples are using a naive bits to color conversion method which is not what real hardware would do.
A single 25% brightness DHGR pixel should be half the width of a HGR color pixel and a...
Each paramblock should have it's own flag - you can make it part of a metaparamblock which can hold other info about the queued I/O such as timer info or whatever.
Does PBReadForkAsync return an error as the function result? I mean, does it return noErr all the time? I wonder if the second...
Why not set a completion routine in the parameter block, then use that to set a flag or to fixup ioResult?
Your wait loop is not waiting for a specific time period - it depends on how fast it can printf 10 times.
I don't see where you kill the I/O when it's taking too long. Then you reuse that...
How bricked is it? Do you have a PC or Intel Mac that can run DOS or Windows?
nvflash.v5.95.0.1-win can work in Windows.
Which Mac ROM did you try?
Do you have the original PC ROM?
Did you copy the soft straps and memory info from the PC ROM to the Mac ROM?
Does the Quadro FX 4500 have 256 MB or...

I don't know. USB has more CPU overhead than a PCI NIC?
Old World Macs had 10Base-T.
New World Macs got 100Base-T.
Power Mac G4 (Gigabit) and later got 1000Base-T.

A USB 3.0 card uses XHCI. You need USB 2.0 EHCI or 1.1 OHCI for PowerPC Mac unless you want to try and port a XHCI driver (there exists a third party open source XHCI driver for Mac OS X but I don't think it's appropriate for Mac OS X 10.4 or 10.5 but I haven't tried).
USB 1.1 is 12 Mbps (≈1.2...
Seems like Buckshot is not saving DLO images correctly. In my source test image, the diagonal line reaches the bottom line. In the DLO result, the diagonal line doesn't reach the bottom line. It seems the image was stretched horizontally so that only 40 of the 80 pixels are represented. It looks...
My program is correct. Change line 50 to write the line number as a character between A and X (1 to 24)
50 FOR X = 0 to 39 : POKE 1024+OFFSET+X,Y+1 : NEXT
What is the size of the binary created by buckshot? If it's 24 * 40 = 960 then it's not including screen holes. It might be saving the file...
If you load the GR image to $2000, then this should be able to copy it to $400 (if my math is correct):
10 FOR Y = 0 TO 23
20 AB = INT(Y / 8)
30 CDE = Y - AB * 8
40 OFFSET = CDE * 128 + AB * 40
50 FOR X = 0 to 39 : POKE 1024+OFFSET+X,PEEK(8192+OFFSET+X) : NEXT
60 NEXT
But it's really slow...
There's some info at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_II_graphics
Basically, the graphics pages have screen holes between some rows. The screen holes for HGR aren't used for anything so you can overwrite them without issue with a BLOAD.
The screen holes for GR are used by various things...
I tried Mac OS 8.6 in DingusPPC but got an error "DrawSprocketLib--DspGetVersion" not found.
I don't have a working Mac OS 9.1 yet for DingusPPC. I can try it in SheepShaver or on a B&W G3.

I think @dosdude1's flashrom for Linux on PPC Mac should work for Debian.
