Yeah, Shouldn't the same procedure to get 8.1 on an SE/30 work on the Classic II? It's a 32-bit clean ROM, I think. But that 16-bit data bus might prove a real bottleneck for OS 8. I am experimenting on putting an SE/30 board into a CC II, because there are no other boards that will readily fit in there. I'm pretty sure it will work unless the lack of a PMW brightness control signal controlled via software prevents the it from starting up or seeing the screen. I'll let you know. Otherwise, I don't think there's as much interest in the Classic format to justify the kind of complicated board upgrade mods the Color Classic has enjoyed.
