Thank you very much for your help here! I’m going to try this all tonight. The machine has the stock ultra2 scsi pci card that it came with in there, which is why I was asking about a pci slot. When I go through open firmware and do multi-boot it hangs at “please wait” When I boot holding C...

Now we’re talking! How do i tell which dev alias is the scsi drive and how to I tell it to ignore it?

You are correct, but the machine hangs at “please wait” after I hit multi-boot!

I will try that usb image, and get back to you.

it won’t boot from either its original restore CD, a macos9 cd, or anything else as long as the scsi HD is plugged into the card! Even OF hangs at “please wait” this blue and white yearns for the scsi2 drive she was shipped with. As long as it’s plugged in, she won’t look at another drive. It’s...

B&W don’t have boot picker in their OF. It’s one of the issues making this such a pain! The scsi chain is properly terminated so that’s not an issue,

Hi All, I am trying to get my blue and white to boot with the original Ultra2 SCSI drive installed. So far, all I can get is for it to hang on a grey screen with the cursor there. Background: The Blue and white will boot properly from OSX or OS 8.6 or OS 9 partitions on an SSD bridged onto...

I was pretty psyched. Apparently my older, crappier acer panel wasn’t being taken seriously by the G3 but the Samsung seems to make it happy.

Just to close the loop here, try the newest monitor you have with vga in. The b&w actually reads the native resolution off the Samsung panel and can power it at 1920 by 1200

I’m not sure what the “default”resolution is and why it’s different than the “be extensions” screen resolution…

I tried it but it seems like whatever resolution it goes to after pram zap is not supported by my monitor! I guess I’ve got to fish the CRT out of its box…

Thanks! I’ll zap the pram.To be honest I’m a bit worried because the thing doesn’t chime at all even though it boots up just fine!

Hi all, I’ve got my b&w humming along nicely, but i have a question about screen resolutions now that I’ve put the old crt studio display back in its box. The “relatively” modern acer lcd with vga input is finicky about signal, particularly about wanting them to be 60hz. My blue and white has...
