No big deal.
Most people would probably go straight to 7.6.1, however I only had 7.6 on CD. Once I installed 7.6 I could no longer boot the SE/30, and the 7.1 disk tools floppy won't recognize my laptops burned data CDs as readable. Luckily, there was a "system 7.5.5 temp" system still left on the machine that system picker let me boot from. This system would read my burned CDs, and I successfully updated to 7.6.1 and used the hack no problem. Just advice to anyone else who has this problem down the road.
