TOPIC

I'm trying to install System 7.5.5, OpenDoc 1.1, and Cyberdog 1.1 on a Macintosh SE/30. The SE/30 freezes when I try installing OpenDoc and Cyberdog.

I've tried performing a clean system install. Stated the SE/30 with only Apple extensions with the addition of Mode 32. I have also tried starting with no SCSI devices, rebuilt the desktop, reset PRAM, start with all extensions off. Is there a known issue I do not know about?

DISCUSSION

The first 680x0-based version of Cyberdog is 1.1 which also requires OpenDoc 1.1. OpenDoc 1.1 requires 32-bit ROMs in the computer. Therefore the OpenDoc 1.1 installer does not work on Macintosh II, IIx, IIcx, and SE/30 computers. Specifically, the OpenDoc 1.1 installer fails with this error, "Illegal instruction, Co-processor not installed."

Engineering is aware of this issue. There is no time frame for a solution, and there are no workarounds. The Famous Apple!
