Re: Help restoring contents of drive to newer computer

[Charles Davis]

Ok what should work.


Get the 'firewire' full backups working as being 'bootable'.

It's then quite simple.

Hook up the firewire cable between the 1TB drive and the new (to you)  
15" PB. have the 1TB drive powered up. Power on the new PB while  
holding the 'Option Key'. The 'old, backed up system from your present  
Ti-Book (on the 1TB drive, will show up as one of the boot choices.  
Select it. When the 15" PB boots, then use CCC/ SuperDuper  that  
system (your old Ti-Book system) TO the HD in the New 15"PB.


DONE

The old Ti-Book system/Data/Garbage/deleted Files/EVERYTHING will now  
exist on your NEW 15"PB


Have FUN!!!

You're going about this all wrong. First, the reason the 1TB external  
HD isn't bootable is because you've probably not got the correct  
partition format on the HD. PPC Macs using 10.4 Tiger require "Apple  
Partition Format". Intel Macs use "GUID Partition Format", and your  
external HD would have came OEM as "Master Boot Record Partition  
Format". The file system is independent of the partition format, so  
even if you repartitioned to "HFS+" file system, if the partition  
format is wrong you can't boot on a PPC Mac. Leopard 10.5 can boot  
BOTH Apple Partition format and GUID on PPC Macs, but Intel Macs only  
boot GUID.


The "best" way to accomplish your goal is to forget about Tiger 10.4

Help restoring contents of drive to newer computer

With the required soldering for the correct bus:processor speed ratio any 
SINGLE 7410+ processor should work on any AGP to QS2002 system board.

Like here, a DA single processor on an AGP system board (100 MHz bus):
http://xlr8yourmac.com/systems/DA_CPU_in_Sawtooth/DA_CPU_mods.html

The 7400 doesn't support > 100 MHz bus speeds.

At least all the third party upgrade cards simply set the correct jumpers for 
the bus speed and work on all the G4 Power Macs from the AGP to the QS2002.

The DUAL modules are incompatible due to physical limitations – they simply 
don't fit in.

> Any QS processor, single or dual, uses BOTH the socket AND an additional

I've heard that it was possible to take a single 733 MHz processor module from 
a DA and use it in a QS replacing the original single 733 MHz G4, because the 
QS version lacks L3 cache, whereas the DA version doesn't and is therefor 
faster.
Not true?

I heard that too – but with a QS processor in an AGP/GE.

The original site has gone, but it has been crawled by the Way Back Machine:
http://web.archive.org/web/20090505190332/http://homepage.mac.com/josephk/G4_mod.html

The difference from the DA to the QS seems to be only the additional 12v line.

100 MHz bus processors are compatible with other 100 MHz bus processors
because these use the same socket and the same powering arrangement.

The 133 MHz bus processors are different.

ANY DA processor, single or dual uses only the socket for ALL its signals
and power. This is the same socket as the 100 MHz bus processors, but
because the physical position is different, there can be no mechanical
interchangeability.

Any QS processor, single or dual, uses BOTH the socket AND an additional
terminal for power.

DA processors are incompatible with QS machines.

QS processors are conditionally compatible with DA machines PROVIDED a
secondary source of +12 volts is provided to the processor card.

The seller is telling me that the processor module is not compatible with my 
Quicksilver. So I bought something that doesn't work and it is my fault, 
because I don't have compatible hardware.

This wouldn't be a problem for me per se. I'd just say, “what was I thinking…” 
and go on with my life. Everybody makes mistakes sometimes. (Or, as Forrest 
Gump said once: “Shit happens!”) No problem with that.

But I honestly believe that this is just a way for the seller to avoid having 
to act, and take any sellers responsibility (if any applies) due to a broken 
item.

I now have to find a Quicksilver 2002… for proving that the processor is 
either working or broken.  This will hopefully end with me saying “quod erat 
demonstrandum” (Q.E.D.)

This is going to be some quest...  to know, what really is and was with this 
processor module!

Thanks for your help.

I tried to remember to check at home last night, but forgot.  It is
one of the video cards that shipped with the machine.  I think it's
the ATI 9000.   Ah, I just remembered a detail that almost guarantees
it.  When I was trying to get OS 9.2.2 to work on the machine I had to
update the ATI drivers in order to stop QuickTime from locking the
machine up at boot time (or vice versa).So, given that was the
only ATI card available as a choice, it must the 9000.   I remember
thinking that if I had a NVidia card I wouldn't have had that problem.

QS 2002 dual 1.0 GHz processors work without modification in a QS 2001 of
any type.

QS 2002 dual 1.0 GHz processors, or QS 2002 single processors also can
work in a Digital Audio.

You MUST transport the original heat sink and fan unit, and you MUST
construct an auxiliary power cable, which provides +12 volts to the
"extra" screw hole on the QS processor.

I finally found a statement that the processor should be compatible with an 
original Quicksilver.

http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Apple/AGPQS2X1000/

Haven't found that so far.

BTW, I was wrong. The original Dual 800 MHz processor module has 7450 PowerPC 
cores on in, whereas the Dual 1 GHz processor module features 7455 PowerPC 
processors.
