Greetings, all. Today I performed a fresh install of System 7.0.1, then I installed the Asante Ethernet driver (over LocalTalk), then I attempted to change the AppleTalk connection to EtherTalk. Again, it locked up halfway through changing from LocalTalk to EtherTalk. Again, I'm still using the Plus that kept its date & time between power cycles (but not overnight??).
By "fresh install," I mean that I created a "Finder folder" for the installed System's Finder file, and renamed its System Folder to something else. Then I installed from disk images. As this used to work, clearly I'm doing something in the wrong order. Asante's installer gives me AppleTalk 58.0.2; is that older than System 7's? I checked "Get Info" but all it said was "System Software 7.0.1" for the version. Should I _only_ install the Ethernet driver with Asante's installer? Should I install NSI 1.4.5 before (or after?) installing the Asante driver? (And at that, probably only the Ethernet driver, right? Now, as for zapping the PRAM, I have a question: how are you supposed to do it? I've found that any time I reboot or cold boot, I (can, and) have to hold cmd-opt-P-R until the OS starts to boot; it seems to hit the HD hard a few times, then reboots itself. Is that correct? Thanks for all the help, guys. Eagle -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
