I'd use DeskZap (available, I think, on the INFO-MAC archives) but you can also use ResEdit.

These are 800K diskettes?  1.4 MB diskettes?

maybe I should back up ... When inserted, this discs show "0 Files". They have "2k Used" and "1k Available". There *has* to be *something* on these disks, I just don't have the right software to read the raw data. Any way to look at "hidden" files or raw data in OS 7.5.5?

Thanks!

What's the file type and the creator on those files?

Maybe someone here can help with this riddle. I recently was given a backup archive of some directory I had on my old family Mac Plus HDD. It's spanned across 6 diskettes. When I put the disks in my Classic II, no files show in the finder, but it shows about 2k free on each. One of the disks is labeled "FB Catalog".

So, anyone know what archive format these would be? I figured maybe it's Norton Utilities' FastBack. I downloaded Norton's "Expander", which is supposed to read the archive format, but looks like no dice. Ideas? Advice on gathering more info?

Thanks!
