Title: Problems Moving HD from mono to TurboColor

Are there any issues that would cause this not to work?  I have that monostation that has NS2.0 on it, and I was trying to move it to one of the TurboColors on my workstation to see about duplicating it.  When I try to boot, it errors out with an "exception #5" and drops back to the monitor.  Is the hardware in the TurboColor not backwards compatible with NS2.0?

Any thoughts?

NEXTSTEP 2.2 added support for Turbo chipset machines, so 2.0 will only run on non-Turbo's.  I've been looking for 2.2 or the 2.2 upgrade for quite some time.

So it might run on a non-turbo color then, just not the turbos.

I knew someone in here would have the answer.  :D
