| PCMCIA Card Ejects at boot, Any way to change that? |
Posted by: Rick Dangerous on 2021-11-22 10:52:31
So I have a CD card setup as a extra hard drive for my 3400c (running 9.0.4) Every time i start it up it ejects it. Is there anywhere in settings I can change that so it doesn't? Just want to reduce wear and tear and not have to mess with it so much.
It's funny when i loaded an OS on there and made it the Boot drive; it won't eject it; so it knows the difference and it's possible. Just wondering if i can do the same for it if it's simply an extra storage drive with no OS.
Thanks for any tips! |

Rick, I don't think so. The Mac treats it just like a floppy, unfortunately, where if there is no bootable System Folder, it will be ejected. Unless someone has a workaround, I am not sure that it can easily be changed. |

Okay thanks! Had to ask; i figured if anyone knew it would be here 🙂 |

Think you would need to change the ROM to prevent this. |

@Crutch would that be an easy thing to do or not so much? |
