I've decided to warm up by fiddling with a 7.1 Duo 210 to 280 NAD.

Here's a image of what I've come up with. Finder is under the scope today. We have a System Folder of 1810K-ish, that needs work down to about 1350K or so.

The working Finder is on the left side, the Disk Tools 7.1 is on the right. As you can see, we need to trim some resources.

Which ones should go? For a start, I can swap out all the color icns and PICTs with black and white ones. In the meantime, I'll muck around the extensions and see if I can pull stuff out.



EDIT: I don't think I need File Sharing Extension (172K FTW!!!), Network Extension is debateable, since the 7.5NAD doesn't have it. I'll fiddle around with things and see what I can do without. Since the Duo has MORE than enough memory in it right now for a RAM Disk, I'll boot off it since System, Finder and Duo Enabler take up 1431K, which is too much.

Time to pull out the Farallon iPrint...

EDIT2: Hooo humm...how do you formulate an answer for when the system says that Network Extension cannot be used because it is too new?

Odd...considering it was installed by the 7.1.1 Duo edition...maybe it's time to launch abort and head straight for the 7.5.3 NAD...

Considering, of course, that....that wouldn't be that far off from 7.1 as here, because I don't have to worry about Ethernet, because Duos don't have Ethernet. Well I do, but the UltraDock stuff is about 150K, which is prohibitive.

EDIT3: Guess so. Even the stock 7.1.1 that came on the Duo 230 "mary xxxxxxx's macintosh" hard drive kicks back an error trying to mount a 9.2.2 volume. Fortunately I can go the other way, and the LocalTalk to Ethernet adaptor works over a router. ++++
