Terry,
The problem with 6.01 is that it really needs to go on a hard drive,
if you want to install the full system. It can be installed as a
minimal system, and run from a single 3.5" floppy, but then you don't
get to use a lot of the features. That being said, there is a 6.01
boot disk on one of the archives that is a minimal 6.01 system, with
Stuffit on it as well... Not sure of the URL... I think the URL is in
one of Rubywand's FAQs
(http://home.swbell.net/rubywand/A2FAQs1START.html).
Also, send me a private email ... I may be able to dig something up
from the dust... :-)
