>There ARE internal
Zip drives that work on the 5300, and there are external Zip drives
and CD-ROM drives that can be hooked up via SCSI.
Don't bother with a Zip drive. It won't provide nearly enough space
for anything this original poster wants to do.
Really? Wouldn't 100mb be enough space to install a Bios OS, or a BIOS
installer?
I only mentioned it because I know it is cheaper (and more portable) than a
external SCSI cd-rom. I know nothing of Bios, so maybe you're right.
Ivy
Macs don't have BIOS.
Installing Linux on Macs older than the iMac is a non-trivial matter.
See my previous email for more information.
