Hey, I just got 3 IPC's, and the mother of freebies, a 630MP!  My =
questions are...
What kind of ram does this beast (630MP) use (I think 30 pin like the =
IPC)?  Is it like the SS10 and 20's, where you have to get special cpu's =
to run 4?  What's the best module I can use in it?  Now on to the IPC... =
 How does one boot off a cdrom?  The prom is ancient, and the oldest =
I've used is on the SS2, which is a lot different.  I tired all the =
"boot sd(x,x,x)" cobo's relating to ID 6, but to no avail.  I got really =
close once, and it said to enter the filename because it appears to not =
be bootable, which isn't true..
I don't mean to hurt anyone's feelings, but IPC's SUCK!  They are slow, =
and I may give one to a friend then see if any of you wants one, I'll =
probably keep one for myself just to tamper on.  The one I'd be getting =
rid of appears to be dead, no ram, but it has a CG3 and a 200 meg or so =
hard drive.. So bsically it's a CG3 with hard drive.  Although, I =
haven't swapped out the frame buffer to see if that's the problem, so I =
guess I'll try that tomorrow.
Oh yeah, what's the command to set the prom so it doesn't look for a =
keyboard, one of my machines is headless and won't boot without a =
keyboard.

Now, onto the party....  Have a good new year everyone!

Jeff

C:\ is the root of all problems...
