Here is the "remainder" of resources that did not get "changed" after copying over the above resources into the 7.5.3 binary:



Red means a resource that will be deleted; Blue means a resource that will be changed or updated; and Green means a resource that will be added from the update to the master. There are about 3 "screen's worth" of resources, I think I will make thus three sub-modified variants with one of each "screen's worth" and try to narrow it down. Identify one "screen" as working, we'll split that up and figure what exact resources are needed.

I was browsing on everymac.com's site, and this proposed 7.5.3 NAD will cover nearly every Mac from the Plus to I believe all 1996 models and a few 1997 models. The '97 models require 7.6, which I'm not going to do :) because those all are going to be too big and "different". And they usually have CD drives.

As for my "other idea" it involved just taking a Disk Tools disk and pulling out the disk tools. Then putting in Memory and Startup Disk with compressed networking stuff. You'd create a RAM Disk with Memory, restart, unpack the payload, copy it all over, switch to it with Startup Disk, and reboot. Ta Da! My Duo can do that sort of thing, I don't know if the other Macs in the orchard can do that though.
