Here's another update from this morning.
With System 7.1, I HAD Enabler 304 in the System Folder which let the
machine boot to a plain "Macintosh" in the "About This Macintosh" window.
Reading Mac Secrets, I downloaded and installed Enabler 001, removing
Enabler 304.
THIS time it booted and identifies itself as a"IIvm" again in the "About
This MAcintosh" window.
I took a Simple Text picture screen capture. Anyone wishing to see it, email
me off-list and I'll send it for your perusal.
pickle? Here's where the rubber meets the road. This machine MUST be a or
THE IIvm.
Jeff
