LCIII. Enet arrived. How to get software on a floppy.

[Christopher Shustak]

Well, the enet card for my Apple LCIII arrived today, and I installed same 
this afternoon.  The OS is already OS7.1, so I think I'm set there.  The 
memory went in last week.  The floppy that came with the card talks about 
ethertalk, which I'm guessing is appletalk over twisted pair.  I need to 
install TCPIP, so that I can at least get the LC on a network, to download 
a web browser, a ping utility, and an  email program.

I believe that I need to find a copy of Open Transport 1.2.2 to run on OS 
7.1.  I have a cable modem, so I don't need PPP or modem dialing capabilities.

How do I get the Open Transport software to the Mac?  I have an Ibook, but 
it lacks a floppy.  My IBM PC has a floppy, but it won't read a floppy 
that's been formatted on the LC.  The Enet card came with a floppy for 
Ethertalk, but I believe that this is appletalk, and not TCPIP.  I'm also 
not sure if the LC will even talk to an OSX Ibook.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Chris
