Hurray! This is just to pass on the good word: the 7.5.3 installer actually worked the way it was supposed to (more or less), and installed the system on my 5300. This bit of ho hum absolutely floored me, since it is the first according-to-expectations event on this machine in the week (at least, feels like ten years) since I reformated the drive.
Anyway it's back in business, ethernet connection and all, and presumably could be switched back to OS 8.5 (the original intention) any time, but with only got 16 MB at present maybe it would be better to stick with 7.5 even though that system is supposed to be unstable on the 5300. Millions of thanks to everyone who helped get me back in business. Best, Victoria -- Don't blame me, I voted with the majority. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
