Last Lisa thread by me. I promise! Seriously guys! :mrgreen:
So my lisa runs, My lisa displays something and right off the bat, the Lisa is booting the LOS installer off the floppy drive.
Unfortunately I can't get the Lisa talking to the ProFile. I got it under unknown conditions and it needed a recap but otherwise you turn it on and the drive quietly spins up and goes READY but the Lisa and the installer can't see it. I tried one of Apple's ProFile cables and a cable I built for the occasion. A brief blip where once and only once did it give an error 82 but otherwise no dice.
When I had the card cage torn down for battery cleaning I noticed that someone had been screwing around with the parallel port.
I'm aware that the Lisa 2 conversion pulls resistors off the I/O board but I don't seem to recall anything about the parallel port needing drastic modifications. It looks like all the pins have been rerouted through 330 ohm resistors and pin 13 is completely cut. Does anyone else have this on their Lisa?
