- In an effort to help eradicate an outbreak of vNir and other viruses on my
- campus, I'm trying to create a
- startup floppy that I can put Disinfectant 2.9 onto. I'm using System 7.1
- because that's what I'm running, and I know System 7 will work on all of
- the computers I'm making this for. (some LC IIs, a Classic II, etc.)
-
- However, the "Min system for all Macs" that the installer makes takes up
- 1350, leaving 40-odd K to put other stuff on. To make matters worse,
- Disinfectant is 333K... obviously something has to give.
- Does anybody know what I can remove from the System file? Or do I have to
- bite the bullet and dig out my old 7.0.1 floppies...
-
- Thanks!
