howto update system 7.0.1?

Hej,

I know, it's a newbie question. But I need help :I

I 've an old Mac LC and try to install german system 7.0.1; ok, great, it works. AND I've a SCSI-CD working/available.

I tried to follow-up the instructions given by Tyler in his homepage at http://www.fenestrated.net/~macman/mac/701.html .

BUT, I cannot open the .sea-files or maybe .sit : system tells something like "programm not found..." I suppose it is the missing stuffit expander(?). OR I've some formatting-trouble by copy the files in windows with hfvexplorer to disk and system 7 won't identify them...

I've tried to burn a CD under OS 10.4.11 as hfs, but it won't be identified by system 7... :'(

Argh, what should I do? Does linux help to copy files the right way/format?

thx

antonio

 
ok, it's done. ;D

I expand most files with OS 10.4.11, open a image, put the files in and burn them with "HD-Serviceprogram" (don't know the right name for it).

The problem were the compressed files, everyone use another method and/or Mac-program to do it and system 7.0.1 had some difficulties with it.

Webserver (MacHTTP) is working fine and next time (I hope) online .

Next step is to setup vnc on the server...
