____________________________________________________
This is version 1.0 of Output Enablers' System 7.5 Update Patch. It is
free, and may be distributed over the Internet and public online
services. It MAY NOT be distributed by any Clock Accelerator company
other than Output Enablers, although people with kits from those
companies (Newer Technologies, KS Labs, Other World Computing, Trinity
Works, DVC, etc.) are allowed to use the program free of charge.
How does it work?
=================
Apple's new System 7.5 Update 1.0 contains code to selectively load
Operating System patches based on machine type. Machine type is
determined at boot-up and is stored as a "Gestalt" value.
PowerMacintosh 7100/66 machines that have been upclocked to 80 MHz
report a different Gestalt value than either the standard PowerMac
7100/66 Gestalt or the 7100/80's Gestalt. Hence, the System Update
1.0 will not load on 7100/66's that have been upclocked to 80 MHz.
OE's patch to the System Update 1.0 file simply copies certain
resources for the normal 7100/66 and changes the resource ID to match
the Gestalt value of the upclocked 7100/66.
A similar patch is included for PowerMac 8100/100 and 8100/110
machines that have been upclocked past 120 MHz.
And now, the legalese:
