compatible CD-ROM drive.

• Mac

OS 8.0 or 8.1 software package (sold separately).

Software Installation Overview

Please review the following guidelines prior to installing Mac OS 8:

• Mac OS 8 requires a 68040 processor or better. You must upgrade

your 68020 or 68030 Macintosh with a Presto or Presto Plus

processor upgrade card before installing Mac OS 8.

• Make a backup of important information on your hard drive prior to

installing new hardware or software.

• If you are installing Mac OS 8 from a non-Apple CD-ROM drive, or

wish to review Apple’s guidelines for installing Mac OS 8, refer to the

Mac OS 8 Installation Guide.

• To avoid Mac OS 8 software conﬂicts you may need to update

third-party extensions and control panels. Contact the software

manufacturers or visit their web sites for software updates.

• For the installation of Mac OS 8 we recommend performing a

“clean” installation of the system software. A clean installation

creates a completely new System Folder for Mac OS 8. The current

System Folder on your hard drive is untouched and renamed

Previous System Folder. This allows you to easily return to your

old system software if you need or choose to do so.

1. Your should already have a Presto or Presto Plus processor upgrade card

and accompanying Presto software (Figure 1) installed in your computer.

If not, refer to your Macintosh model installation instructions packaged

with the Presto or Presto Plus for further instructions.

2. If your Macintosh is turned on, shut it down. Locate the Presto 8

Enabler Boot diskette (Figure 2) from the packaging materials.

3. If you have an Apple manufactured CD-ROM drive, skip to step 4. If you

have a third party manufactured CD-ROM drive, you need to install the

third-party CD-ROM driver software from your hard drive to the ﬂoppy

diskette as follows:

• Unlock the diskette by raising the lock tab (Figure 3), then insert the

diskette into the ﬂoppy disk drive. Open the System Folder on the

ﬂoppy diskette and locate the Extensions Folder. Open the Extensions

folder, locate the Apple CD-ROM extension (Figure 4), and move it to

the trash. Empty the trash.

• Copy the third party CD-ROM driver software from the System Folder

on your hard drive to the closed System Folder on the ﬂoppy

diskette. Usually it is an extension that is installed in the Extensions

Folder. If you are uncertain about the driver software installed on your

computer, refer to your CD-ROM drive user’s manual for details.
