Hi forum, last night I tried to fit my NeXT Cube with a NeXT Dimension board without success. Here's the story:
The board seems to be properly fitted in slot 2 and gets power (generates heat).
Booting up in rom monitor and watching the operating system output as it loads, I fail to see the board being detected.
Opening Preferences and clicking on the icon with the two monitors shows: Not applicable.
My NeXT Cube has 32 megabytes of memory and tried booting with two different hard drive, other has NeXTStep 3.0, the other 3.2.
At this point I'm unsure if there are drivers to be installed before the board can be detected, I couldn't find any manual or guide online.
Any help, tips, or guidance is very much appreciated. Thanks!
