Incidentally, there is a way to de-serialize LOS
diskettes using FEdit --
I don't know where your set of disks came from, or whether they've been
used. (The LOS install disks have to be un-write-protected because the
first time you install the software, the installer reads the Lisa's
unique hardware serial number and writes it to the disk for piracy
prevention. If you ever try to install the software on another machine,
it won't let you.) >
I, for one, would be interested in learning the details.

Okay -- it's several pages of text and diagrams (screen shots, I think). If I
can scan and OCR it without losing too much, I'll email it. Maybe save as
low-res pics otherwise. Will do that later today...
