Very roughly :
- AppleShare support on the peecee (Linux setup was fairly good support)
- Create an AppleShare on peecee, put all the 7.5.3 self-mounting disks on
it
- Boot Mac from the Network Access disk
- Set up TCP/IP and AppleTalk over IP on Mac
- Mount the AppleShare on peecee that has the disks on mac
- Double click on first file. (This should mount all the files)
- Run the installer. Watch blinken lights on hub. Go for a coffee :)
I'm sure someone on the list will correct me, because that's how I'm
planning on doing it.
