Re: Newbie Question: Extracting GS/OS in SEA format



Well, that's part of the problem. I don't have Shinkit for the 8-bit or GS.
I don't have any software at all except for a ProDos 8 boot disk and ProTerm
comm package. I do have a serial cable for the GS now so a null modem
transfer can be accomplished. At least I think it can. Only problem with
that is still, I don't have Shrinkit.
