[comp.sys.mac.comm] Problems with Shiva Fastpath

lr@cs.brown.edu (Luigi Rizzo) (02/22/91)

We have a Shiva (ex Kinetics) Fastpath, rom version 4.1; the
KSTAR version is 8.0.1.
Whenever I use the Fastpath Manager from a Mac SE, trying to reset the
Fastpath, the mac bombs, whether I'm using finder or
multifinder. The same problem also exists if I use the Fastpath
Manager supplied with a previous release of the Fastpath,
supplied with K-STAR version 8.0 (this software, on the Mac SE,
worked perfectly with the old bridge). The only way to reset the
bridge with an SE is to power off the bridge, open the box, and
temporarily remove the jumper used to connect the back up battery
to the RAMs.

Everything works fine when I use a Mac Classic. 
Did anybody experience this problem ? Is there any way to
solve it ?
	Thanks
	Luigi
