I tried both options, but I can't seem to transfer the files to the power mac. I have system 8.0 and the download for Apple share client 3.8 allows downloading all at once or in parts. I am downloading them on my iMac. If I burn a CD the power mac can't read it. If I download the floppys they are 1.4mb. They fit on the floppys if they are in dos format, but they won't open on the power mac. if I convert them to Mac OS Standard there is only 1.2mb available and the information won't fit. What am I missing here?

You could always download the System 7.5.3 disks. Read more here:

The only o/s install disks I have are in CD's.  I only have a floppy

also planning to donate with an external SCSI drive, but I don't
have a notebook SCSI cable. I do have a duo dock and ethernet, but
neither the Power PC or the duo will connect. I don't recall the
exact error message but it said that somehow that the system was not
compatible with the ethernet. I think they are running on system 8
and the newer computers are on system 10.4.  Is there some way I can
make them compatable?


It's likely you need to updated the AFP driver:

It's for OS 8.1 and up but has notes about other versions.
