Re: [NTLK] Problem Installing NCU

I have now been able to make a connection (serial), but it works only
if I start up in Classic (in other words, not if I run NCU from MacOS
X, causing Classic to start). This involves installing the driver for a
Keyspan USB-Serial connector for MacOS 9, which apparently precludes a
similar driver for MacOS X (according to the Keyspan page for MacOS 8/9
driver download). Given this, I presume that using the connection from
MacOS X will be impossible and that indeed seems to be the case.
