- I've just broken down and installed System 7.0.1 on my //si (5/80). However,
- there are times when I'd really like to do something memory- or speed-
- intensive, without losing all my INITS and cdevs, so I have kept system 6.0.7
- on the drive and am using System Picker 1.0b11 to switch between the two.
-
- Of course, there are many fonts, INITs, and cdevs I would like to use under
- both systems, but I neither wish nor have the drive space for double copies
- of each on the hard drive, one for 7 and one for 6. Plugging aliases into
- the 7 folder for either the Extensions folder or its contents does no good.
-
- Does anyone out there know of any way, even a hack, for accomplishing this?
