Having 32 MB of RAM makes it easier, here's how, Add RamDisk+ 3.24a and Mt Everything 1.1.1 control panels to System Folder. Setup RamDisk+ to include System folder and clock app. Setup RamDisk+ to transfer boot system to RamDisk. After booting use Mt Everything to stop HD. Definitely works with 7.1, don't know about 7.5.5. Gamba <http://home.earthlink.net/~gamba2> -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
