What I want to do is netboot a MacOSX install cd from installation on a CD-less machine (Adrian's iMac). Between myself, Dagobah and coxy we have tried numerous things. We can make it netboot OS9 using a file called 'Mac OS ROM' (look at mussel:/space/Mac OS ROM.old) and the OS9 install image. However we have had no luck booting OSX. What we have been trying is replacing Mac OS ROM with a file called BootX (look at mussel:/space/BootX) The image we are using for this is the entire OSX cd image. It doesn't work; giving an error that is represented by a black and white icon, a picture of a folder with a Mac on it broken in half. Does anyone know anything about Netbooting OSX?? Any tips or tricks? Or a document (so far I haven't found anything on google)?? Going insane, but gaining Mac clue... --proXy -- http://davyd.ucc.asn.au/ PGP Fingerprints proxy@zdlcomputing.com 08B0 341A 0B9B 08BB 2118 C060 2EDD BB4F 5191 6CDA davyd@iprimus.com.au 8E89 7765 3AEC 4434 C05E 59DC 2CA9 6B89 108C D936 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

It has occurred to the RME that Nautilus (currently 266MHz) could be safely overclocked to 315MHz. This would allow us to run OSX (10.1) nicely. The beauty of being able to run OSX on Nautilus would be that then we would be able to use NIS and NFS mounting for homedirs for users. (We have established that these things exist while playing with Tangerine (Adrian's Dutch iMac)). It should also be noted that Nautilus is currently not running OSX server anymore (someone broke it quite majorly). Henceforth OSX server was removed, and the space repartitioned into a 4gig HFS partition available from OS9.1 Nautilus' nifty video adaptor thingy has been set so that it can do software resolution changing. This means that all those games such as Airburst now change resolution properly. Relevent docs on overclocking Nautilus are available for public access (meaning that they are lying somewhere near skinner), and there is little problem with cooling as currently Nautilus has no CPU cooling and apparently an old pentium fan will suffice. Also, overclocking Nautilus will make EVN run faster ;) Comments or flames? --proXy and coxy (It has occurred to me that that signoff is mildy amusing) From andrew at ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au Wed Jun 5 17:13:27 2002 From: andrew at ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au (Andrew Williams) Date: Wed Oct 27 01:25:21 2004 Subject: [tech] Overclocking Nautilus In-Reply-To: Message-ID: <200206050913.g559DNl17780@linseed.longtable.org> On Wed, 5 Jun 2002 11:49:00 +0800 (WST), proXy wrote: >In an effort to make OSX run on more hardware.

An 18% boost in CPU speed would be barely noticeable - I very much doubt it's CPU bound, more likely memory or disk bandwidth. Hacking the hardware around and risking frying the CPU for a barely noticeable gain is just silly.

One of the programs on there is Pilot Install, which lets you install stuff without doing the rest of the hotsync rigmarole. However, the hotsync button on the cradle itself is broken, so you need to start it up with the hotsync app. I think I also put a PalmOS 5 simulator on it (shiny!)

I do have a 7.6.1 CD that should boot any 604e PowerMac if you just want a basic install on there, or I can also put 9.2 on it which is overkill... Although Adrian has 8.6 in Dutch! Anyway, RAM is probably 168 pin DIMMs, but don't put in any EDO DIMMs until you are sure the computer accepts them and won't die on you. Can we have more info? If you bring the machine into UCC on Friday I'll give you a hand with it if you want.

If you cannot reach your servers intermittently then it is likely _not_ a problem at your end. I'm investigating at the moment. There is a problem with the UWA => PARNET link that is also affecting campus routing. You may only get this when I have fixed it!
