How to create a drag install?

<< < (2/2)

coachla:
My recollection of the 9.2.2 general install is that it does not include certain MDD elements, such as the multiprocessing driver and I think the audio driver, hence my 1.25 dual showed one processor or no audio, one or both of these. I absolutely needed my machine specific install disks. Of course once installed I just drag copied a backup of all the system files.

I know this is off topic here....just wanted to chime in about MDDs.

Syntho, what are you using 8.6 on? Curious....

Syntho:
I don't have it yet, but a 9600. I found an old torrent floating around with an 8.6 install. It also comes with an 'extras' folder filled with useful software. I believe you can actually boot off of the CD. I hope that's all I'm gonna need. If you can provide a better source for an 8.6 install that would be great.

coachla:
I don't think I ever had an installer. I think I bought a machine with it on it, so i just copied it, later put the system folder on other machines. I always ran a minimalist system with a 7.6 Finder sometimes (not so stable).
