Thanks everyone for the help. I ended up removing the System file from the
System Folder and then renaming the System Folder to something innocuous.
The wierd thing was (to me at least) that after this treatment was applied,
instead of giving me the blinking ?, the SE/30 would momentarily display

I don't think LC 575s suck *as such* they just don't have the style of the CC,
it's a case of attaching the best case to the best guts possible.

I don't care how people call them. This list is for compacts, so if the

Today, I picked up an undamaged 5200 or 5300 mobo from Waterloo flea

My lips will be sealed ad infinitum. I don't even own a CC, so nothing on

Not to whip a dead horse into sausage, but I thought we agreed that

Well, go for a composite instead of pure liquid fuel - they're commercially
available (AeroTech, among others, make them,) and much easier to handle
and deal with, while still providing some pretty nice punch.
I have worked with solids before but this time I am going for a liquid fuel

isn't there a brand of pretzels called cc's ? ;)

Smallest I can think of is probably the Q605/LC III/LC II. I'd use the
Q605 if I were you.

That'll be a problem. 12V is a

Unfortunately, none of them are particularly cheap like a Q605 board would
be. Shouldn't be too terribly difficult to wire up a couple PowerBook
batteries for the proper voltages, however...

Same as an LC II or LC III board; I think MacGurus might have some info.
The service manual PDF might too.
