The short clock-port header which came with my RapidRoad will not push down on the clock port as all of the pins are present.  Does anyone have a way to get this done easily without me having to hack up ports or cables?


One of my A1200's had a full set of clockport pins on the motherboard. I think I just waggled them off with a set of needle nose pliers - They came off easily, very neat, and flush with the motherboard header...just the two required pins of course. Clockport cable then fitted perfectly.

This is probably the same thing I'd do.  If I recall correctly, aren't those extra sets of pins completely useless?


Not really - you can hide them in food.
