Note, I have something like 18 extensions installed in my IIci (16MB RAM). "stripping" might help it run better, but I am planning to downgrade to System 7 Pro (7.1.1) and run 7.6.1 on a PowerBook 1400cs/166 that I'm getting Monday (18 May 2015). Also, more RAM might help (the PB 1400cs/166 that I'm getting has 48MB).
And to talk about the original question, I could easily make an 800k System 6.0.8 disk, by using a 1.44MB disk and stripping fonts/DAs/disk utilities. It would probably take 3-4 800ks though, specially if I include a full installable System. (I could make a non-installable 800k 6.0.8 on a single floppy disk.) It would be quite tricky making a 400k System 6 boot disk, let alone an installer. Also, are there even any 400k-only Macs compatible with System 6?
