Which Network cards Support a G4 with Leopard?
Posted by: PlaceboKoyote on 2022-08-13 04:09:18
Hey,
I have a Dual 1080MHz mdd G4. By upgrading the FSB from 133 to 167MHz to get that speed, i either broke the onboard LAN Adapter or it's not compatible with the higher bus speed.

So i paid 20€ for a sealed, new in box Intel Dual LAN Networking card and it ran pretty fine, great workaround.
However, i want thr dual mdd to run Sorbet Leopard and the older G4s i have to run tiger and OS9.

But i can't Boot Leopard with the Network card, i get a kernel error, because a lot of Networkcard-chips are incompatible with Leopard but not with Tiger.

Which models are definetly working with Leopard amd are PCI cards that fit an MDD Powermac G4?

Thanks in advantage.

Tim
