Hmmm... I'll have to settle for floppies for now :) I have the
indignant task of having to go out and buy floppy disks, or I could
poach a stack off of my dad.

Don't worry, Mac OS 7.5.5 will have a whole 80MB (more than enough
IIRC) hard disk for itself. I ma using a 2.1GB external IBM drive
(I hope) to do the NetBSD bit.
Does anyone know about upgrading the LCs to 68MB or 132MB?
LowEndMac, and various other FAQs, say it can be done but will
NetBSD recognise it all? Any UK sources for 128MB 72pin 80ns RAM?
