| SE/30, MODE32, & System 7.5 - I can NOT get this to work! |
Posted by: olePigeon on 2016-05-13 19:11:07 Sigh. I can get it to boot with 80MBs of RAM, just not with MODE32. :-/

Posted by: olePigeon on 2016-05-13 19:13:50 Well, if he's going to load 7.6 on it, then he'll need a 32-bit clean ROM anyway, in which case he doesn't need MODE32.
It also occurred to me that my IIci is 32-bit clean, so that's probably why it works just fine with the 128MBs of RAM.
I bet if he had a 32-bit clean ROM it'd work fine even with 7.5.5, and I'd be willing to bet the 128MBs of RAM would work with a 32-bit clean ROM, as well.
I think this is case closed.

Posted by: olePigeon on 2016-05-13 19:17:28 Actually, now I'm curious. Does anyone have a IIsi or IIfx ROM that I can flash to my DougG3 ROM? I'd like to know for certain.

Posted by: rsolberg on 2016-05-13 19:20:18 I think the 10ns module is actually 100ns.

Posted by: olePigeon on 2016-05-15 10:02:21 Yes! About damn time. I flashed my DougG3 ROM with a clean 32-bit IIsi ROM and installed a fresh copy of System 7.1.1 Pro. It now boots with 128MBs of RAM with 32-bits enabled. 🙂
Much better! 🙂

Posted by: olePigeon on 2016-05-15 14:43:18 Thanks, BMOW sent me that link earlier. 🙂 Also, bbraun had a IIsi ROM with the ROM check disabled, so that was convenient.

Posted by: omidimo on 2016-05-15 21:32:18 Nice to see that you resolved the problem and have it all "clean"!
I picked up a MacSimm to get 7.6 on my SE/30. Did you the resedit upgrade path?
|
Posted by: olePigeon on 2016-05-16 13:57:26 Oh, no. This was a IIsi ROM under 7.1 Pro. I was just trying to get it to boot with more than 36MBs of RAM. Haven't done 7.5 yet.

Posted by: Paralel on 2016-05-17 13:01:40 Yeah, if I remember correctly, you can't mix RAMs of differing densities (Different number of chips on a given side) nor speeds in the old compacts. Everything has to match.
