IIGS questions

[Scott.Alfter@skunkworks.genesplicer.org (Scott Alfter)]

MW>1) Where can I find the Prodos 8 ? How big memory sizes does it requires 
MW>to run it ?

Last time I checked (which was some time ago), ftp.apple.com had all Apple II
and IIGS system software.  This may have changed.  I'm pretty sure that GEnie
would have the same stuff.

ProDOS 8 requires 64K, so it'll run on any IIe, IIc, IIc Plus, or IIGS. 
(It'll also run on a II Plus with a language card.)

MW>2) Will the Sider 20mb from First class works on IIgs ? I have it on my 
MW>IIe with their own controller card. I wanted it to be opreated on my IIgs.

If you're only running 8-bit apps, it will definitely work.  If you're using
16-bit apps, though, it might or might not work.  I don't know if a driver to
use the Sider under GS/OS was ever written.  If nothing else, you can buy a
RamFAST and plug your Sider into that; the RamFAST is supported (and you'll
need it if you want to get a larger hard drive in the future).

MW>3) Is there any FTP address support for the IIGs software?

Lots of 'em.  Check the FAQ.
