- The following has woirked fine for me...however, if anyone sees any problems
- with this procedure (which I empahasize has worked on 20 + macs over the past
- 14 months) let me know.
-
- Before upgrading to system 7, duplicate your system 6 folder. Name the
- copied System folder (the one without the Active System folder icon-- ie the
- folder without the modular Mac on it's folder "System 6.0.x"
- (Hopefully the "x" is an 8 for laser printer driver
- compatibility.) name the active system folder with the Mac on it "System
- 7.0.x".
-
- Install the System 7 update as usuall.
