If someone could send me information on how to obtain AUX I would greately appreciate it. My configuration will be: SE/30 8M memory 105M hard drive DENON DRD-253 CD-ROM I would also like to get a Ethernet connection and add a large screen monochrome monitor. Any suggestions as to the combination or whatever. Thanks -- -*-*-* Steve Monroe scum@walney.com -or- monroe@ropes.opcr.icl.com 304 E. Amhurst St., Sterling, VA 22170, (703)430-1388

My configuration will be: Call 800 538-9696 to get the name and address of the nearest authorized A/UX dealer. Apparently (from what I've seen here in comp.unix.aux) there are some unofficial mail order places like Maya Computers. Their address is in the back of any MacWeek magazine. > SE/30 > 8M memory > 105M hard drive If your drive manufacturer doesn't provide A/UX compatible partitioning, you may need to reformat the disk using a third party product. SilverLining by LaCie is the one most frequently recommended on this newsgroup. > DENON DRD-253 CD-ROM This should work, as long as you have a MacOS driver for the Denon drive. >I would also like to get a Ethernet connection and add a large >screen monochrome monitor.

Since the SE/30 only has 1 slot, you can't have both Ethernet and an external monitor. I'm using the Asante SE/30 ethernet board in my SE/30, and it works fine. --Brian Bechtel blob@apple.com "My opinion, not Apple's"
