[Duo2400] Comet on 9.1--Revisited

[Hugh Schickel]

Hi,

I'm interested in this too...

My experience:

Installer runs like a breeze with OS9 Helper. You may need to boost the 
application component memories to get part 2 to run.

No luck getting airport 2.0.4 to run. I use orinoco 7.0x.

Filesharing via ethernet or airport seems to cause random freezes after 
the update when sharing with OSX.3.x. I have not yet tried a reinstall. 
It uses a bit more memory but seems to be faster other than the 
filesharing problem. That problem unfortunately is a dealbreaker and 
I'm probably going to drop back to 8.6 or 9.1 if I don't hear better 
reports vis-a-vis this thread.
