Trying to install ARAP on a Mac II which has BOTH System 7 and System
6 on it (which one active is selected by Blesser 1.1).

The Installer seems to find System 6 (although System 7 is selected
and running at the time) as it complains that it wants "System
Software" on the disk in order to do the job.

And despite what the manual says, it won't install from a fileserver
("install over a network") either (on another Mac which DOES have
System 7 on it). It complains that it can't find files that it needs
on the file-server.

I'm trying to use a file-server as both the machines I'm trying to
install on are 800k disk only, and we got a 1.4M installer disk with
the distribution.

Any clues? Any ways around this known?
