Hi,
there is another way to put Modulae etc. on a hard disk. All you need
is a Ramfast SCSI.
Make one or two (or as many as you like) HD partitions each sized 800K.
Then copy the 3.5" disk
on the partition and reboot. While rebooting you have to press the
appropriate keypad key. Supposed your 800K partition is the third one
then you have to press the '3' on the keypad.
This works fine for all I know (and purchased!) or my friends told me.
Think of the boot times for Test Drive II - put it on the 800K partition
and it boots in a few seconds!
Ok, you can't use the Finder or any other launcher. But with a Ramfast
this is no problem anyway.
