Ive got a IIcx that ive tricked out with 5meg, mono

accelerator with 8 meg. unfortunately, the rocket accelerator locks up the
machine on the second reboot. disabling it lets the mac work at original
speed. can anyone provide suggestions? the rocket seems to be temperamental,
from what i can see.
David,
You are about to discover how temperamental the Rocket really can
be...
I dare say you know that Radius still have the latest
RocketWare software and a brief FAQ available on their ftp site.
There's another utility there called "lift-off" that checks the
configuration of the host Mac for timing senstitive cards that may
conflict with the Rocket.
Have you tried knocking up a minimal system floppy (eg disk tools for
System 7.0 with the RocketWare extension added) and thried booting
from that?
