Re: universal bootable disk

[lovek]

 >I am trying to make a universal bootable disk. I am working with several
machines and I want to be able to take one disk to do maintence on
these machines. These machines include 400mhz iMacs, a G3 tower and a G4
tower.
B&W G3s and all G4s are, by definition, "new world" Macs.

Beige G3s and earlier are, by definition, "old world" Macs.

It is possible to build a 9.0 system which works on old-world and
new-world machines. Perhaps not *all* new world machines, however.
Check out Norton Utilities and carefully observe how they build those
systems.
Perhaps it is possible to do the same for 9.1 and a number of old-world
Macs ... besides the obvious Beige G3, of course.
I just made a copy of the 9.1 installcd and added all the extras I 
wanted in the tool application folder.
Make a copy bootable and do not optimize on the fly in toast that is.
