I have but one obstacle left... being able to unpack an apple floppy
image file from a PC. I have a bin file containing the files I need
to get the quadra going. I got the floppy drive working on the
quadra. I can read and write mac floppies from my windows machine.
But I can't get the files out of the bin file. And I can't write the
bin file directly to the disk and make the quadra read it. So i need
either a mac emulator I can run on XP, or a windows utility to unpack
the mac bin file and produce individual files which I can write to the
floppy. Anyone have any ideas?
I also picked up a rare and elusive kung-fu black terminator for the
IIfx. So I should be able to attach the 600e to that machine and get
it going. That hard drive would hopefully be recognized by the
install CD. Then I would only need to find an AUI to RJ-45 doodad
which is skinny enough to fit into the recessed ports on the IIfx. I
have an AUI thingy now, but it's too fat to reach the db-15 connector
on the network card.
