I don't have a machine that is capable of doing the feats listed below at the present time, so I thought I'd ask for some help. (This is for the Guide.)
1.) Can a Mac with an internal floppy drive, like a Molar Mac, when booted into OS X such as Jaguar, recognize 800K disks? I heard that OS X does not support 800K disks, and I also heard that Mac OS X Server 10.0 and 10.1 can read them only. But I'd like to know for sure on the real thing. I'm pretty sure Molar Macs and machines like the beige G3 series with internal FDDs can work with 800Ks in OS 9.
2.) Can a Mac running System 6 connect to OS X 10.3.9 over Ethernet and MacTCP? I've heard that Jaguar is the last to speak "Old AppleTalk" but I'd like to tick off that box concerning 10.3 on the Chart. System 7.0.1 should be able to do it, but I've never known myself as I've never even owned 10.3.
I'd appreciate the help, surely!
