Hey Mac68k peeps. I'm trying to get system 7.1.1 running on my LC475. This requires that System Enabler 065 should be installed in the system folder. I can't boot the machine so I figured I'd fire up an emulator (Snow) mount the image there and copy the enabler over. Sadly when I try to copy the file over using the file share option, I get Error -44. I was never a Mac person and I have no idea what I'm doing. Any suggestions? Thanks!
So I dug up a list of old Mac error codes and it turns out that Error -44 means the disk is write protected. I can probably figure that out but I'm not really sure that just copying the file in will work. Aren't there a bunch of hidden filesystem objects on HFS? Will those be properly created? I guess there's only one way to find out. 😅
Ok, never mind... I have no idea why the disk is write protected. I did manage to figure out how to select the download folder and I can see other System enablers there. I can't find any place to change the write status of the drive in Snow and I checked the permissions on the host system. Maybe I should stick to System 7.5.3?
@IPXFong I hope this helps, it's a BlueSCSI compatible 500 MB bootable disk image, with a fresh install of System 7.1 with System Update 3.0.
System 7.1.1 was only shipped with some PowerBooks and doesn't have anything extra that's for the LC 475. The "7.1 Pro" version is a bit different with just bundled apps (like PowerTalk).
In this disk image I've also included some extra stuff. If you _really_ want 7.1.1 Pro lmk.
