Hi,
I posted awhile ago about a non working Power Mac 8500. The problem was that it had no video out. Fortunately, it was just the adapter that didn't work, and I found a new Mac video to VGA adapter. The video out works fine now. Unfortunately, the hard disk has no OS installed, and when I attempt to boot Mac OS 9.1 from a disk, it freezes at the same spot every time (this is only a 120 MHz processor). I downloaded System 7.5.3 free from apple.info (19 floppy disk images). I'm a little confused about how to create boot-able floppy disks though. Do I just drag the .part file onto the floppy disk, or is there some kinda of floppy burnng involved?
