Looking For: Help w/ AppleTalk on IIgs + Some Stuff for a IIgs



I used to used an Apple IIgs as my main system, but I have since sold it
and purchased a Mac - love the Mac, but there is nothing like the IIgs...

fortunately, someone gave me an old IIgs :)  it had a ROM 01 board in it
and half a meg of RAM, so I got a populated RAM card and a ROM 03 1mb
logic board... now, I have a 2mb ROM 03 system with a 3.5 and 5.25"
external drive...  I dont need the 5.25" drive, so I might as well try and
sell that...  I would like another 3.5, though (the Apple Platnum kind
with the soft edject button and LED - "Apple 3.5 Drive")

a few things...

I would like to hook up an external hard drive - I have a 320mb SCSI I
think I can spare (just need to move what I need to the Mac's internal),
but preferably I would like to buy a 40mb or so just for the IIgs...
anyone have anything cheap?  I definately need a SCSI Board, Unless I can
get a 10 or 20mb Sider with it's controller board... that would be great
too...


I'm getting a mouse card and a large Apple Tablet - do you think that will
work with this machine?  Wouild I use the II/IIe mouse card (w/ DB09F) or
the Game Port?


I might want some more RAM - anyone have more than a 1mb board for sale? 
if it's inexpensive, I might want it - maybe I can sell this populated
Apple board (1024k)


I also need a keyboard and mouse...

I have a lot of stuff to trade, and I would perfer to do that...

The more important part:

I am trying to run AppleShare Server 3.0 on my Quadra and acctually boot
from that over LocalTalk (using PhoneNet style connectors)... for some
reason, the system wont boot - I installed Apple II Setup properly with
the AppleShare Server installer, but I dont think the GS thinks AppleTalk
is there... the SLOTS control panel says...


Slot 1 - AppleTalk
**--**
Slot 7 - I've tried both AppleTalk and YourCard here... whjat do I need?

Startup - I have tried SCAN and AppleTalk alone for this...

using the Apple Startup Disk (from support.apple.com), I booted the system
and added the AppleTalk stuff (FST, Drivers, and CDEVs) from the System
Tools Disks...  it didnt see it...

I even tried to make a 1.1 mb RAM DISK and boot from that - even with the
system installed with the Installer, it gave me a CheckStartup Device when
I tried to boot from the RAM Disk...

Thanks a lot...
