A few questions

[James.Cass at sealedair.com]

Ken -

According to Apple's hardware requirements for Panther, "Mac OS X 
[(Panther)] does not support processor upgrade cards."  :-(
See item #1 here:  http://www.apple.com/macosx/upgrade/requirements.html
Don't let that stop you from experimenting, though.  Just be aware that 
Panther won't "officially" support processor upgrade cards.

Hope this helps....James

While I haven't used a Sonnet upgrade with OS X, I've had good
experience with Sonnet boards in the past, and still have one running OS
8.6 on my "Frankenmac" (a PowerComputing clone upgraded with Sonnet,
best computing value I ever found).

That's how I do it, all the way down to the error dialog as mainstack.

To resolve differences between OS X and Classic/Win/Linux, I often use
this function to obtain paths to external stack files:
