Not going to lie, one of the main points of entertainment in Druaga's videos for me is the steady increase in exasperation-turn-anger he encounters as he encounters obstacles at every step.
Your apple collection makes me think of the 8bit guy. Not sure if he'll be a fit your channel though. He's a bit of a square while you're a bit of a stoner 🤐
the mre nerd I am subbed to both to, but I do agree that the 8bit guy is much more uptight then druaga, I don't mind that, and I am much more like him then I am like druaga but sometimes people like that don't get along well with people who love to joke around alot like druaga
What about the light shifting to red when it went to plaid. That one was a little more subtle. But Drugga, you unpacked the scanner 3 but never clicked it.
SCSI TERMINATOR!!!! you need a terminator on the other scsi port on that scanner. that's also probably wreaking havok on the scsi hard drive and why it's not showing up.
Didn't catch that actually. I do know some devices have built in terminators which helps things but I remember one of my friends way back when having his hard disk appear twice because there wasn't a terminator at the end...
I know this is a year old, but if dd just returns super fast and didn't physically write the disk, type 'sync' to force it. Linux (like every OS) caches writes to slow devices to stay performant and not hang up DMA channels. 'sync' forces it to flush all pending writes.
Holy shit, that's a lot of apples. At least throw in some oranges or bananas in there, maybe even a Raspberry Pie! "funny joke" (i did actually make that terrible pun up, it's not copypasta)
The best intro i've ever seen. Anyway, new house same carpet :3 PS: i suggest to use "pv" instead of "dd": is more intuitive and it has a progress bar!
The scanner is set to device ID 0 according to the system profiler. The hard disks in old macs are set to ID 0 as well. The scanner is probably causing a conflict and making it appear that the hard disk failed. Those ID selection switches teed to be a little buggy....
I always hated bent pins, or pins that fell out, or even worse, a broken pin that got stuck in the receiving connector. Christ, I'm glad we don't use pins anymore.
You can use cat instead of dd to match block and sector sizes automatically. I would suggest that in the future. Your DD would have run a lot faster if you set your block size correctly. The command would be "cat | pv > /dev/fd0" The "| pv" portion is optional and displays the transfer rate. If pv isnt installed: "cat > /dev/fd0"
That Spaceballs intro was top notch. I was like music sounds kinda like it, and it just keeps going... (what kind of room is that long??) Gave me a great laugh, thanks!
Hey Druaga, next time run lsblk in the terminal to list all block storage devices, it'll save you the trouble of having to guess what /dev/* you're actually trying to write to.
I am screaming and pointing at my screen. USE THE FUKCING SCAN SOFTWARE!!111OPEN THE SCANNER APP#$%@AJHSYSGUYWGWUD... And then, when he does it, error. AAAAH. Edit: OPEN THE NEWER VERSIONS. It's not just a scanner icon! HHHHHHHIIIIIIEEEEE
This video was another great "Roller Coaster" ride! You are more brave than myself because, I never buy a used apple component unless it also comes with the required software drivers. Which has included the following: an SCSI Epson scanner, Imation Super Disk external drive, Zip Disk external drive, Seagate external Hard drive, apple video card, apple TV/FM card with matching black remote control, and a USB PCI expansion card. Trying to locate that one piece of needed software would, just drive me crazy.
Woo! You did some research! Now you just have to get into the habit of doing research before your videos. I'm so proud of you, your growing up so fast Drauga1!
Watching this video was cathartic because I went through many of the same struggles . I was trying to write a bunch of the .img files to floppy a while back and it was driving me insane.
You should get a SD card HDD replacement board for that Mac. The old drives are all dying or faulty. You can get a pretty high capacity and speed boost by using a SD card in one of those SCSI to SD adaptor boards. Solid state is good. :D
Under /dev/ you have the actual device. There you copy raw disk images, using dd or cat. If they are compressed, you have do decompress them first or use something like zcat which does it for you. Under /media/ you have the filesystem on it as interpreted by the OS. You copy files there. Not disk images, unles you want to transfer that. ALWAYS umount /media/ before dd'ing a disk image. Otherwise you will end up with erratic behavior and corrupt data. testdisk and photorec are two utilities by the same author which allow you to analyze and recover disk images and the files on them. Even if the filesystem is unrecognizable, you may be able to get the files off it using photorec. Also allows for "undelete".
You need Photoshop, or some other image program to utilize the scanner. Apple only supplies the driver. Also, hold the mouse down when booting the SE/30 to eject the floppy, it will then boot from the hard drive.
The .img file type is best used with WinImage. It makes floppies with that extension. I've made quite a few DOS floppies with it too. I think there's a Mac program that can do it but I've not looked.
That wall of computers doe... Hey Druaga, have you thought about doing like a giveaway for those computers to a random viewer? Like a prize mailaway to a lucky individual?
'.scr' files are screensavers - if you changed the extension for win16 apps its likely to have '.com' extension. You can get apps for windows that can convert '.img' files to disks.
Nicholas Weightman The .img file extension is a rather generic one. Plus, actually look at the file size of the programs. The "make floppies.scr" file is only 14 bytes, so it's too small to have anything of of use IMO.
Druaga, you could probably make a tidy profit opening up your house to people as a "computer circus bizarre", showing off all the weird shit you've done to old computers
This scanner can actually work under windows 7!! if you have a PC with an old PCI SCSI card it can do it and there are drivers available for it!! It's not apple inside but re-branded, you can do your own research and find it out! :)
Just a tip, lsblk in Linux often shows the device alongside its mountpoint, using it in your case would've shown that /dev/fd0 was the one that was mounted to /media/Druaga/disk
You probably know all this by now, but the "Make Floppies.scr" script and the other .scr files are Disk Copy "disk scripts." It looks like all this stuff came from the Apple Legacy Recovery CD.
I love that dual disc drive thing on the apple 2 I've never seen one of those was that an apple thing or an after market one? I have two apple IIgs systems one a rom 1 woz edition and a rom 3 that I love for it's fantastic sound and music stuff as you know Rom 1 was like apple 2 fully compatible and then 3 just went fully 16 bit and stereo sound and high res monitor support and 16mb of ram it was lovely!
Not going to lie, one of the main points of entertainment in Druaga's videos for me is the steady increase in exasperation-turn-anger he encounters as he encounters obstacles at every step.
I really like his confused voice for some reason. But the REAL reason why I watch his vids is because I'm a nerd.
jv2014 p I'm into the angry freak outs
Video idea: network every single one of those computers together
Zeebins any attempts will cause his isp to cut his internet off
Rip Druagas internett
Zeebins if that would work, i would say W O A H T E C H N O L O G Y
I'd keep one of every kind and then recycle the rest for their gold, copper wires and aluminium. It would give something back.
Sauce either that or his router and modem will catch on fire.
That Spaceballs intro is amazing. Best piece of Druaga1 cinematography ever!
The Jezter
I loved every bit of it.
Your apple collection makes me think of the 8bit guy. Not sure if he'll be a fit your channel though. He's a bit of a square while you're a bit of a stoner 🤐
oh really ? aaaaaaaaasasssssssssssssssssssssssss
8bit guy is too "presentation" for my taste, druaga is just failing and a lot closer to reality
I like both.And I'm subscribed to both.
the mre nerd I am subbed to both to, but I do agree that the 8bit guy is much more uptight then druaga, I don't mind that, and I am much more like him then I am like druaga but sometimes people like that don't get along well with people who love to joke around alot like druaga
Hey Toby it's _Druaga_, not _Dauraga_
Has anyone told you that you've got a lot of Apple computers?
No. Absolutely not
Not enough.
Just think how badass a throne out of macs would look like
If I ever have a few hundred thousand dollars lying around, I'll give it a try.
Also nobody's mentioned that the intro is a Spaceballs reference
Spaceballs the Color Scanner!
My god
What about the light shifting to red when it went to plaid. That one was a little more subtle.
But Drugga, you unpacked the scanner 3 but never clicked it.
Jack Burzynski dammit, the radar's jammed...
they've gone to plaid!
SCSI TERMINATOR!!!! you need a terminator on the other scsi port on that scanner. that's also probably wreaking havok on the scsi hard drive and why it's not showing up.
Man, as someone who grew up on these old machines, I was screaming the very same thing.
Colin Stuart I was screaming the same thing. I used to have 5+ SCSI devices for my Powermac G3.
Me 2!! check SCSI IDs !
Scanner and hard disk are also trying to use the same SCSI ID.
You don't necessarily need a terminator, though it does often help.
Didn't catch that actually.
I do know some devices have built in terminators which helps things but I remember one of my friends way back when having his hard disk appear twice because there wasn't a terminator at the end...
I know this is a year old, but if dd just returns super fast and didn't physically write the disk, type 'sync' to force it. Linux (like every OS) caches writes to slow devices to stay performant and not hang up DMA channels. 'sync' forces it to flush all pending writes.
i expected a jumpscare at the beginning
Mima for new touhou 64 with illuminati confirmed.
spaceballs. no jumpscares.
"We brake for nobody" but you do break for Druaga...
the number on the back is to determine the SCSI ID of the scanner.
Wow, thank you. I use to think everything that could go possibly wrong does for me, now I know it's far worse for other people.
If you are uncomfortable using dd, use GNOME Disks. Not only is it graphical, it will also make things harder to screw up
Holy shit, that's a lot of apples. At least throw in some oranges or bananas in there, maybe even a Raspberry Pie!
"funny joke" (i did actually make that terrible pun up, it's not copypasta)
you missed a perfect opportunity when you quoted Snakes on a Plane. the next line is "EVERYBODY STRAP IN! I'm openin some fuckin Windows"
BOOM.
These videos were some of the first that really piqued my interest in older computing. I'm glad to rewatch and reminisce :)
*An epic and ultimately mostly fruitless adventure. I count on you for this every week druaga. You're our champ buddy man.*
The best intro i've ever seen. Anyway, new house same carpet :3
PS: i suggest to use "pv" instead of "dd": is more intuitive and it has a progress bar!
well you can just use dd status=progress on newish versions for a progress bar
THAT is the BEST intro on ANY TH-cam video EVER!
The scanner is set to device ID 0 according to the system profiler. The hard disks in old macs are set to ID 0 as well. The scanner is probably causing a conflict and making it appear that the hard disk failed. Those ID selection switches teed to be a little buggy....
"OK yay the mouse does work! Great" "Oh no.." "OK, great"
Excellent Spaceballs homage! That is a ridiculous amount of hardware. A veritable King Kong collection compared to my wee Fay Wray collection.
Lets smoke SSD's and put a weed in a Macintosh
the MakeFloppies.scr file is just a text file that says "MAKE FLOPPIES", it shouldn't have done anything when run as an EXE
I always hated bent pins, or pins that fell out, or even worse, a broken pin that got stuck in the receiving connector. Christ, I'm glad we don't use pins anymore.
WE SSD FOR NOBODY
SpadeSebbo WE FDD FOR NOBODY
jan harald WE HDD FOR NOBODY
WE SSHD FOR NOBODY
Shy tzedaka WE VHSSD FOR NOBODY
Shy tzedaka I beat ya!
Spanks the computer, then get surprised when its hard-drive fails.
Not a problem, he'll switch everything to SSDs at some point :v
Yep his next step is to put SSDs in those two classic Macs.
You can use cat instead of dd to match block and sector sizes automatically. I would suggest that in the future.
Your DD would have run a lot faster if you set your block size correctly.
The command would be "cat | pv > /dev/fd0"
The "| pv" portion is optional and displays the transfer rate. If pv isnt installed:
"cat > /dev/fd0"
And you get a Mac Mini and you get a Mac Mini and you get a Mac Mini and.... oh crap!
Jamie Champion iv read that in a funky way xD
Jamie Champion lol i remember that
That Spaceballs intro was top notch. I was like music sounds kinda like it, and it just keeps going... (what kind of room is that long??)
Gave me a great laugh, thanks!
Hey Druaga, next time run lsblk in the terminal to list all block storage devices, it'll save you the trouble of having to guess what /dev/* you're actually trying to write to.
fdisk -l and parted -l should also list them
I am screaming and pointing at my screen. USE THE FUKCING SCAN SOFTWARE!!111OPEN THE SCANNER APP#$%@AJHSYSGUYWGWUD...
And then, when he does it, error. AAAAH.
Edit: OPEN THE NEWER VERSIONS. It's not just a scanner icon! HHHHHHHIIIIIIEEEEE
Well, I enjoyed another classic Druaga1 video. Have a good one!
apple made some weird ass shit back then lmao
Ban Ashrack they still do but now in the form of overpriced junk over wich you can't choose what you do with it
Ban Ashrack like a game console...
SCSI-1 flatbed scanners. HA! Deadlines be damned! Forget about getting a CUP of coffee while you wait, You got time to make the whole damned pot!
I am so jealous of your old Apple collection right now. You've even got a Power Computing clone in there.
so many apples, make a pie!
This video was another great "Roller Coaster" ride! You are more brave than myself because, I never buy a used apple component unless it also comes with the required software drivers.

We brake for nobody is a spaceballs movie reference including the sound. Love it.
WHERE THE FUCK DO YOU GET ALL OF THIS STUFF MAN, I WANT ONE
OMFG YES! DRUAGA 1 VIDEO.
Woo! You did some research! Now you just have to get into the habit of doing research before your videos. I'm so proud of you, your growing up so fast Drauga1!
I love when Druaga1 has no idea what he is doing with Linux, because that makes me feel superior.
You've becoe pretty good with the gMod's gun since you moved to your new location!
That Spaceball reference ^_^
ZenonChrono they jammed our radar!
She's gone from suck to blow!
MEGAMAID!
I start the video and you hit me with the spaceballs opening bit? OMFG I'm dying over here! Lol
Watching this video was cathartic because I went through many of the same struggles . I was trying to write a bunch of the .img files to floppy a while back and it was driving me insane.
That Space Balls Intro was just awesome :D
You should get a SD card HDD replacement board for that Mac. The old drives are all dying or faulty. You can get a pretty high capacity and speed boost by using a SD card in one of those SCSI to SD adaptor boards. Solid state is good. :D
You got quite a collection of computers there. I must admit, I'm jelly.
He's already got the scanner, he's got the Macintosh, the OS is installed
*notices video length, sees "part 1"*
This is gonna be good.
Scanners! I'm still rocking my CanoScan LiDE 20 from the early 2000's, a true underdog of tech gizmos :p
If you Shift + Right Click on a folder you can open a command prompt that starts in said folder.
LOVED the spaceballs intro
i heart uranus
still only 360p :P
Druaga1 can you do a room tour when you are done moving?
Under /dev/ you have the actual device. There you copy raw disk images, using dd or cat. If they are compressed, you have do decompress them first or use something like zcat which does it for you.
Under /media/ you have the filesystem on it as interpreted by the OS. You copy files there. Not disk images, unles you want to transfer that.

testdisk and photorec are two utilities by the same author which allow you to analyze and recover disk images and the files on them. Even if the filesystem is unrecognizable, you may be able to get the files off it using photorec. Also allows for "undelete".
I have a really similar monitor to you. Mine is Samsung SyncMaster 943BX 19" Still rocking it as my daily monitor for the last 8 years
edit not really that similar but close
edit not even close
Carpet! Glad to see that is still a feature :D
That Spceballs reference was absolutely beautiful.
I remember using those scanners at school. Think we used them on Mac LCIII's
I love that intro. Didn't even know it's a reference
You need Photoshop, or some other image program to utilize the scanner. Apple only supplies the driver. Also, hold the mouse down when booting the SE/30 to eject the floppy, it will then boot from the hard drive.
Tried mackening from the .scr just .txt or .bat - to what is inside? I know it is not nessecery now, but hey.
Grumpy Electrician that could have actually worked...
it just says " MAKEFLOPPY :", it's probably a batch file for some unknown disk imaging program
havent watched it in full yet but died laughing w/ the spaceball reference at the beginning :D
druaga...
when you uploaded dis last night
ITS WAS FREAKIN 11:30
I SLEPT WHILE WATCHING IT!
In the device manager you were looking at the IDE bus instead of the SCSI bus...
Your new neighbors must have said WTF when they saw you hauling in all those computers lol.
1:01 Holy crap, that computer with the 5.25 floppy drive looks very similar to my very first computer!
The .img file type is best used with WinImage. It makes floppies with that extension. I've made quite a few DOS floppies with it too. I think there's a Mac program that can do it but I've not looked.
*WE BRAKE FOR NOBODY!* Continues to not play with his little Lone Star figures...
that spaceballs intro tho
I love system 7. I used to run it on my psp using basilisk.
Ever thought to terminate the SCSI bus? The number is the SCSI ID on the bus, not the number of connections.
So, I'm watching some guy install a scanner.
Completely worth it.
That wall of computers doe...
Hey Druaga, have you thought about doing like a giveaway for those computers to a random viewer? Like a prize mailaway to a lucky individual?
I really hope my videos can be as awesome as yours one day. Two minutes in and I'm already laughing my ass off!
Very entertaining. I miss messing around with old Mac computers. Might have to play with SheepShaver or Basilisk
now I get the intro reference. An almost infinite long thing that ends with a bright light.
'.scr' files are screensavers - if you changed the extension for win16 apps its likely to have '.com' extension. You can get apps for windows that can convert '.img' files to disks.
Nicholas Weightman The .img file extension is a rather generic one. Plus, actually look at the file size of the programs. The "make floppies.scr" file is only 14 bytes, so it's too small to have anything of of use IMO.
Druaga, you could probably make a tidy profit opening up your house to people as a "computer circus bizarre", showing off all the weird shit you've done to old computers
to read mac disks on Linux, you need to either enable HFS in your kernel or FUSE
The scanner and the hard disk are trying to use SCSI 0, it's a conflict.
That's why it was set to SCSI ID 1 (setting 2) in the first place.
SCSI ID was having a conflict on the Mac II as well - these older macs use SCSI for their hard disks, you know.
The spaceballs references... i love it!
I absolutely love the Spaceballs opening lol
Wow that Macintoshs’ hard drive rly just said f you at the worst time ever lol.
I LOVE THE SPACEBALLS REFERENCE!
This scanner can actually work under windows 7!! if you have a PC with an old PCI SCSI card it can do it and there are drivers available for it!! It's not apple inside but re-branded, you can do your own research and find it out! :)
That's a lot of macs and other computers and love the the intense music 😂👌👌
Gold mine of old computers.
Druaga the number thing in the scanner is the ID. I think the ID you choose is the same as the internal hard disk in the classic macs.
BEST INTRO To a video EVER !!!
Just a tip, lsblk in Linux often shows the device alongside its mountpoint, using it in your case would've shown that /dev/fd0 was the one that was mounted to /media/Druaga/disk
You probably know all this by now, but the "Make Floppies.scr" script and the other .scr files are Disk Copy "disk scripts." It looks like all this stuff came from the Apple Legacy Recovery CD.
yee
new druaga1 video
just what I needed before I die
No seriously my sinuses are dying
help
The intro I love it. We brake for nobody.
I love that dual disc drive thing on the apple 2 I've never seen one of those was that an apple thing or an after market one? I have two apple IIgs systems one a rom 1 woz edition and a rom 3 that I love for it's fantastic sound and music stuff as you know Rom 1 was like apple 2 fully compatible and then 3 just went fully 16 bit and stereo sound and high res monitor support and 16mb of ram it was lovely!
Where's part 2? I don't know if I can wait much longer even though it's only been 3 days!
So much stuff named "weed" or "cannabis" everywhere. Druaga never disappoints.
"We brake for nobody." Prepare to install scanner!
.img is just a standard floppy disc image format, really only used with virtual machines
