I need the control panel and extension panel for the newertech 167 cpu also how do i install a system on the hdd when i have no external cd rom (can it be done).

Congratulations on the 550c!  I've always wanted one of those...

The 550c has ethernet. IIRC, the Mac OS 8 CD would allow access to AppleTalk networks (either over serial ports or over Ethernet). So, if you've got a second Mac w/ a CD-ROM drive, it would be easy to set up a simple network to install whichever version of the OS you want to install.

Write back if you've got another Mac equipped with an ethernet port & CD-ROM drive. You'll also need an ethernet cable (either crossover if you've got two older Macs or two regular patch ethernet cables and a hub) and an ethernet transceiver (AAUI to 10baseT) for the 550c.
