Under Mac 7.1 it gets definitively recognized as Mac II. I definitively have a SWIM, since one of my two floppies reads HD disks, I checked Penguin says my gestalt is 6, Mac II A clue for the MacII is the 68020 CPU + FPU + MMU, AFAIK the only apple machine with these specs.
That definitely answers my question. Thank you.
PS: I didn't use this mac since many months, it first stasrted up, but then refusedfurther boots with the sad mac sound and no video output. REmoving components trying to isolate the problem didn't help. When I put al back together with no luck, a last attempt made it boot. Any ideas? I see no visible damage on the motherboard, the batteries still have some juice left...
It's hard to say what might be the problem. The symptoms of a bad battery are quite a bit different. This almost sounds more like a bad video card to me. Do you have a different one you can try? A lot of older macs refuse to boot without video.
