- It sounds like a problem with the installation program. You might
- want to try installing on a Mac, then copying the installed files to
- floppy, then deleting them from the Mac and installing them via
- Executor.
-
- The sad fact is that some installers do really bad things which makes
- it hard for emulators to run them. As an example, Apple's MAE 1.0
- couldn't run Word 5's installer, and before you blame Microsoft, the
- Word 5 installer was a derivative of Apple's Installer. Yahoo.
-
- Installers based on VISE and Smaller Installer and Excel 3 and Excel
- 4's installers all should work under Executor. I'm not sure what
- Claris Works 2 uses.
