Default Re: Retrospect backup problems

Yeah, I have the advanced driver kit 2.0 and the driver update 2.5

As far as getting the 3940uw to work in the G4 I had to flash the card to recognize the G4.
Here is what I did:

1. install the card but remove any other cards.
2. Boot up holding down command-option-O-F
A white screen will open with "Open Firmware" and ending with a 0> prompt.
3. When the open firmware promp appears type the following 3 line exactly as shown (press return key after each line). Note that the spaces between quotes are important and the instructions are case sensitive. (the & = a space. Wherever you see a & type in a space in its place.) After pressing return after each line the Mac should display an "OK" response with another"0>" prompt.

dev&/pci@20000000/pci-bridge/pci-bridge/ADTP,3940UW
"&"&"&driver,AAPL,MacOS,PowerPC"&property
mac-boot

4.the machine should boot. When done run the 3940UW flash utility (from adaptec website) and update to latest firmware. The program will update and then ask you to restart.

You should then open the power domain control 4.0 (or above) Set the board to "default" then rstart. You should be good to go.
