Two years ago, you would've been correct. Apple has released 7.5, for
free
download, to their ftp site. This is the same FTP site that has all
their
updates.
FWIW:
ftp://ftp.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/US/Macinto
sh/System/Older_System/System_7.5_Version_7.5.3/
System 7.5.3 through Update 2. 19 disks. No netimage. Full install.
Let say:
Mac HD w/o OS and have superdrives or pre-7.1 on it, but have working
peecees. What is the method to get them onto disks?
Very roughly :
- AppleShare support on the peecee (Linux setup was fairly good support)
- Create an AppleShare on peecee, put all the 7.5.3 self-mounting disks on
it
- Boot Mac from the Network Access disk
- Set up TCP/IP and AppleTalk over IP on Mac
- Mount the AppleShare on peecee that has the disks on mac
- Double click on first file. (This should mount all the files)
- Run the installer. Watch blinken lights on hub. Go for a coffee :)
I'm sure someone on the list will correct me, because that's how I'm
planning on doing it.
