This is what I figured out what I should do to start: - download the os with my PC - Copy the images to floppy's (Using Disk Copy on my PC ?) - download 7.5 net installer - Copy the image to floppy. - Boot the quadra using the net installer - Feed the os disks - ???? Any hints on what to do next ?
Is Disk Copy available for PC's or do I need to use a mac of someone else ? Is (freeware) communication software is availble ? Is mounting sofware for mac formatted cd's on a pc available ?
http://home.earthlink.net/~gamba2/ http://macfaq.org/index.shtml Both links will walk you through the pc -> mac thing.
you might try basilisk and a mac network disk to make the needed floppies, Appletalking between them and making the floppies on a mac or installing from basilisk to the quadra. This requires a ethernet connection
Just install the OS you wont as a clean install, I suggest this incase there are any needed drivers on the Japanese OS which you may have a hard time finding else where.
Transmac is another option, clunky as it is, unnessarsary if you have a ethernet connection between the two machines.
