Re: Help with appletalk

["Bryan Villados" <news002@macgeek.org>]

Well, the instructions Turley provides is technically correct. However, as
his documentation says, it's for the IIGS to "see" the Macintosh. You can
boot from GS/OS on the IIGS and store files on the Macintosh using System
7's file sharing capability. Still, though,  you can't store ProDOS on the
Macintosh and have the IIGS boot from the Macintosh without AppleShare,
which if I read your original post right is your primary goal. BTW, I
checked eBay, and AppleShare 2.0 is up for bid with less than 15 hours to go
as of this posting.
