Does anyone have have a listing of which resources in System 6.0 are already in the Mac SE roms and could therefore be removed to save room? My boot floppy is getting rather crowded and I could use extra room for networking and other inits. Steve Neruda (neruda@tut.cis.ohio-state.edu)

System 6.0 comes with Install scripts for installing minimum configuration systems which will work only on specific machines (II, SE, or +). I've been using the II minimum system off and on since 6.0 came out, with no problems. I would suggest using this as a starting point, and build from there, rather than attempting to pare down a full system. Bob Hablutzel BOB@NUACC.ACNS.NWU.EDU

I want to know how I might go about stripping down System 4.2 for use with my Mac+. I have no hard drive, I have only 1 meg RAM, and I don't use MultiFinder. I am especially interested in trimming my System since I like to run a 450K ram disk(RamDisk+ 2.01, any more current version around?) as my System Disk(with Finder 5.4). Any suggestions? And if you can/can't answer that, how about for Sytem 6.x? What don't I really need there? Please tell me what I can take out with ResEdit, and I can probably figure it out from there. Please e-mail me directly as I don't read this newsgroup often. Thanks. Eric Romo University of North Dakota UD069225 at NDSUVM1, or UD069225@NDSUVM1 or UD069225@VM1.NODAK.EDU
