    Regarding optional/additional CPU card expansion it's difficult to say what is going to work and what's not. Noone in his sane mind should expect that we are able to test each and every model/config around beforehand.
    We depend on user feedback once MorphOS 2.6 is released. At least it can be tested at no cost ....



    Hi Frank,
    I have bought an Apple PowerMac G4 FW800 with Dual G4@1420 PowerPC 7455 64Kb L1, 256Kb L2, 2048Kb L3 (with ATI Radeon 9000 pro, 9200, 9250 and 9800Pro/XT :-) ) ready for MorphOS 2.6.

    I have also bought a daughterboard CPU card Sonnet Encore MDX Dual G4@1800 PowerPC 7447A 64Kb L1, 512Kb L2 for use (if useful) in the PowerMac G4 FW800 with MorphOS 2.6
    It's this one:

    and here the manual

    I don't think to have problem with this Sonnet card, because It's only needed to patch the OpenFirmware to enable it, using these (They are installer and uninstaller to patch the OF):

    What do you think about this ?

    thanks for the support
    Best regards
