What usually happens is that the _Minimal_ II/IIx installation assumes just
that - a mimimum system, probably B&W.  I haven't looked into it any deeper 
than that, as far as tearing apart the Installer scripts.  All I know is the
solution to this problem is to use the Installer on the System Tools disk
with the "normal" installer scripts, not the "Minimum" scripts.

I had the same problem with System 6.0.  If I used the Installer and the   
"Minimum II" script, I got a black apple.  If I used the regular Installer
script for the II on the System Tools disk - no problem.
