I have two older machines (8500 upgraded to G3/350 and a 9600 G3/400) and was
wondering if Panther (like Jaguar I run on them now) will be able to be
installed even though they are unsupported. Possibly with the Sonnet software or
XPostFacto?
I have Panther right here but haven't had the nerve to try installing it on this 9600 yet. :)) I will let you know as I'm sure I will be in the next couple days.....
XPostFacto doesn't work with Panther yet. Because of memory management changes in Panther, it is necessary to rework some of the kernel extensions. There may also be a few other issues to cope with. So I'm working on it, but am not finished yet.
I expect that Sonnet's software will have the same problems, as they use virtually the same kernel extensions.
I am hoping to get this fixed sometime in the summer, but I haven't been very accurate at predicting how long things take lately :-) I'll certainly get it fixed by the time Panther is released, or die trying.
