Ok. I have checked. I remembered it incorrectly. He has a 68040 CPU
and a MMU, but no FPU.
We have tried booting the rescue disk made from the image in the
directory hamm/hamm/disks-m68k/1998-03-10/mac.
I boots up, but hangs after a while in the boot-up sequence. Last line
says 'Starting kswapd'.
We haven't bothered to download the base*.tgz and other files to the
local hard disk yet as the instruction says:
- copy the resc1440.bin and drv1440.bin floppy images to a directory on the
Mac HD (HFS).
- copy base2_0.tgz to the Mac HD (no clue if there's a Mac tool to 'cat' the
1.4 MB chunks together).
Where am I supposed to get them? ../common/?
Can this be the cause for the hang?
