Quadra 700

["Andrew Ball" <aball%students.prairiestate.edu@localhost>]

Hello,

    I finally got around today to installing four 4 Mbyte
SIMMs in my old Quadra 700, which I've kept around with the
intention of trying NetBSD/mac68k. The machine seems healthy
enough with the exception of the hard disk, which has
presumably siezed because of the long period of non-use.  I
understand that the internal drive much be a 3.5" 8-bit,
electrically single-ended SCSI disk (or something that can
"fall back" to operate that way).  What's the disk capacity
limit for a Quadra 700?  Am I right in thinking that I will
need to install something like System 7 on a small
partition, to boot from?

Thanks,
