I have a pair of Duo 2300c's with a single docking station. The Duos came with a minimal 7.5.2 installed, which is not new enough to put an AppleShare client on, so I upgraded one of them to MacOS 9.1. That's when things got interesting...
Because I don't have the rectangular SCSI cable that would fit on the
back, I popped the cover of the docking unit and ran a 50 pin SCSI
cable from the internal SCSI port to a CD-ROM that's in an old UMAX
c500. (All I needed was the CD-ROM and the power supply.) This worked
great under 7.5.2, but now that I've bumped up to 9.1, no CD I put in
the drive comes up on the desktop.
Has anyone seen this before?? Thanks!!
You need the "Apple CD-ROM 5.3.1" extension which is easily found online.
Then you should be able to use your non-Apple player all the way through 9.2.2.
But 9.1? How does it compare to 8.6 in these 2300's?
