I guess I don't care what OS it is as long as it will boot my
PowerBook and I can fit it on a 1.4MB floppy.

Re: Disk Tools

2002-09-06 Thread Remy Davison

Howdee Listers:

I just acquired a messa Powerbooks (that some IBM'er got in a grab-bag at 
some church thingie) of various types and specs. 

Now, back in the old days of system 7.1, there was a floppy called Disk 
Tools that could ... well, heck; y'all remember that...!!!

I tried my old copy of it on these PB's but they all said that they could 
not 
use it because the system on it was too old.

Is it possible to put any variation of 7.5 (or anything after 7.1.x) onto 
ONE 
floppy? OR CONVERSLY, is there ANY WAY to startuyp a modern mac on a floppy?

(Of course I know that I could always hook up the PB to a Desktop w/ a 
CD-ROM...)
D/L Apple's Network Access - it's a 7.5 boot floppy image (1.3MB) which 
will boot all PBs up to and including the 500 series, and all DT Macs 
prior to the PCI- based Power Macs/Performas.

Cheers,

RD

It wasn't too old, you just didn't have the right enabler.

There is a disk tools floppy for 7.5, IIRC my CD wasn't bootable. Check 
Apple support.

Sure it is:  I have the whole 7.5 system on floppies.  Also OS 8.1 Disk
Tools.  I think both versions are downloadable from Apple but I'll email one
or both to you if you want.

 (Of course I know that I could always hook up the PB to a Desktop w/ a
 CD-ROM...)

Does this work?  As I startup, I mean -- I had supposed it didn't, even if
the PB were in SCSI disk mode.

Best,
Victoria
