- Well, it seems you didn't dl the System 7 tune-up.image file from
- bric-a-brac (also known as ftp.apple.com). If you ftp to ftp.apple.com and
- get the tune-up.image file, then just use the Disk Copy from the system 7
- utilities, you will be able to load the tune-up onto a disk (and it will
- work for sure).
-
- I downloaded the system-7-tuneup.hqx from ftp.apple.com when it was first
- released, but then apple released the .image file in it's place (same thing,
- but it ensures you get the entire contents).
-
- I suggest you dl the file again, or visit your local Apple dealer and get it
- for free, or just copy it from a friend (use Disk Copy 4.2), whichever is
- easier.
-
- Be sure to read the "Read Me" files which accompany the installer.
