[comp.unix.aux] aux 1.1 and MAC IIci

segedy@cspi.com (Cathy Segedy) (12/14/89)

Hello.  I am posting this for my fiance, although I am curious too.  Does
anyone know of any reason why a disk with AUX 1.1 (working fine on a MACIIcx),
will not boot on a MACIIci?  Oh, its an 80 meg, if that makes some sort of
difference (I shouldn't think it would!!!)
					thanks, cathy segedy

AUX 1.1 isn't compatible with a IIci. You need AUX 1.1.1

 Simple.  A/UX 1.1 doesn't support the Mac IIci hardware; 1.1 came out some
time before the IIci did.  You need to get A/UX 1.1.1; that reportedly works
just fine on the IIci.

Apple released A/UX 1.1.1 for support of both the Mac IIci and the SE/30.
A/UX release 1.1.1 is identical to release 1.1 with the additional capacity
of being able to run on the IIci and SE/30. 

The IIci requires that you use system software version 6.0.4. System software
6.0.4 is provided with A/UX 1.1.1.  Also, A/UX 1.1.1 comes equiped to support
a smaller console screen font when used with the SE/30.
