Thanks to help for several people here a few days ago, I just managed to put the old original hard drive from my Lombard in my old 3400. All the deconstructions went very somothly and it works just fine.....sort of.
I don't have the original 3400 Install CD. Are there special bits in the system that one can only get from that disk? Will a system 8.6 installed from the Lombard install disk work? Originally, when turned on with the new hard drive, the 3400 worked just fine, but wouldn't connect to my LAN. Didn't surprise me, because I knew the system 8.6 that was on the hard drive I had just installed did not have the 'Powerbook G3/3400 modem' extension in the system folder. So I put one in, and it still didn't want to connect to the LAN. So I did a clean install of 8.6 from the Lombard CD. It connected just fine to the LAN. Then I installed Conflict Catcher 8, and rebooted to do a clean install merge. Three times it has now crashed in the middle of the clean install merge, always with a 'conflict catcher extension has caused an unimplemented trap error' message. Usually that happens when I am selecting which files to move over. Once I decided to move them all, and then it happened 4-5 seconds into the merge. I even uninstalled CC to see if it was somehow corrupt. The I reinstalled it and the same thing happened. Anyone have any idea what is going on and/or what I should do about it?
