Hi, I have a Lisa 2/10 , ROM H/88, that has been repaired with a lot of help from 68kmla.org. Its sold in Sweden with a swedish keyboard. There is Lisa OS 3.1 on the harddrive and its booting from the HD. The CRT has been burned in the screen with the previous OS thats obviously Mac OS in swedish. See picture.

Now I have installed MacWorks XL 3.0 on a IDE file. Its Mac OS 2.0 , finder 4.1. The trash bin is the same design in Mac OS 2.0 as in the swedish OS where its called Papperskorg.

My question is if someone has a swedish Mac OS for MacWorks XL 3.0. My Lisa has a 400k floppy drive so it has to be on 400K floppys. The first Mac OS in swedish I have found is 6.0.3 (800K).

This might be what you are looking for:

Apple Legacy Software Recovery CD​

The software on that CD is worth a shot, but it may not work for 400k Mac disks (and definitely won't work for 400k Lisa Office System disks) as the use of Disk Copy 6 means that none of the images kept the tag bytes associated with sectors on the disk. Give it a try --- it would be good to know if it works!

It won't be on the Legacy Recovery CD, which only has American English versions IIRC. You need the MacOS Anthology, which has some... odd archiving decisions also.

Hi and thanks for Your answers.

Its true that MacOS Anthology has a lot of languages but only from OS 7 and later. The Legacy Recovery CD have only OS in english.
There is a difference in the trash bin icon between OS 2 and OS 3.

So I suppose the old OS thats burned in my CRT is System 2.0 in swedish.

I will continue for searching for MacOS 2.0 in swedish.
