I just got GS/OS 6.01 installed on a Zip disk. I had no end of trouble
with bad floppy disks.
When booting up, I get an error that says "The selected Appletalk
connection could not be found". I'm not using Appletalk. Did I screw
something up when I did the installation?
No. I have had a similar experience and had to hunt down anything that
looked like it was Appletalk related and rename it. Sorry I don't have
an exact list.
If I later want to install an Uthernet and Marinetti, do I need any of
the Appletalk or network related stuff from the install floppies?
No. Just Marinetti and the Link Layer driver from my website. Plus any
apps you want to use.
I did install the Laserwriter driver. It is listed in the direct
connect control panel. Does this need any of the Appletalk stuff?
I think that maybe where the Appletalk stuff came from. You can have a
look at the installer script to see what options select which file sets
if memory serves me.
The reason I installed the Laserwriter is so that I can print to a
Postscript file and later print that on my PC.
That gives me an idea. When I have an Uthernet and Marinetti
installed, is it possible to setup a print queue on the PC and print
to it from the GS via TCP/IP, or would I need Appletalk on the PC?
I don't know of anyway to print over Ethernet from an Apple II or IIgs
When I drag a file to the trash and reboot, the trash is empty. On a
Mac, the contents of the trash survive a reboot or shutdown. Is this
not the case on a GS?
