I am about to upgrade my 512K Mac to the 512K-Extended version
(adding the new 128K ROMS and 1 800K internal disk drive, but NOT
the Mac+ logic board). I have an Apple HD20 hard disk which, of
course, runs off the external drive port.
My question, after hearing various comments about the Installer
problems, is:
Once the upgrade has taken place, will my HD20 work as is, or do
I have to perform some surgery on the System 3.2 already on that
disk?
Also, what must I do to the various programs stuck (by copy
protection) on floppies?
Could anyone who has gone this route post a summary of what has
to be done, and what problems to look out for?
Many thanks,
Jeff
