1.  You must have hyperdrive software V3R2, available from your
    dealer.  Note:  my dealer now charges $30, claiming this is
    GCC's doing, where I used to get it free.  Does this mean 
    there will be more aggressive support for upgrades? :-)

2.  Install the new hyperdrive software first.  Be sure to use
    Manager V3R2 to turn OFF the hyperdrive caches, which were
    on by default after installation.  These caches and System 4.2
    do not get along.  Go for maximum compatibility...

3.  Then install the system using the Mac Plus script.  I found that
    after doing so, I had to remove Backgrounder, the INIT that detects
    print spooling and such.  Its presence caused MultiFinder to drag
    to it's knees.  However, I can't afford a la$erwriter anyway, so
    it didn't matter.

Parenthetical note:  how come there's no spooler support for appletalk
imagewriters?  Am I the only person who bought such a thing?  Apple,
do you still care?
