I downloaded the Finder 6.0/System 4.2 upgrade materials from
Cash-We-Serve :-) and updated my 20meg internal Hyperdrive. So far, so
good. (Configuration: 1 meg MacPlus, 20Meg interal Hyper). I have
followed the suggestion of turning off the RAM caches from the Manager.
I'm also running with Software Supply's Suitcase and Pyro! INITs. They
seem to work relatively well, as long as I remember to hold down the
OPTION key while selecting 'Suitcase' from the Apple menu (and continue
to hold it down while selecting my desk accessory).
I, of course, agree with all the previous comments trashing GCC for
their "support" (if you can call it that) of their Hyperdrive. Talk
about giving the customer the shaft after laying out serious change for
a product -- they make (stereotypical) used-car salesmen look
positively charming and helpful.
As soon as I can cough up the money for a new memory board, the
Hyperdrive is history. Perhaps we should organize a boycott of GCC's
Personal Laser Printer, in response to their support of Hyperdrives? (no
smiley here, folks!)
