Using an Apple CD 300e+ with a Macintosh Plus
I have a macintosh Plus with a system 6.0.3 floppy, an external 800k drive and a CD 300e+ drive. I want to use the drive to transfer files to floppies from my PowerMac G5, but I understand I need system 7.x.x and a CD driver to run the CD drive; and so I have two questions:
- Can I burn a bootable system 7 CD with my PowerMac G5 to run on the Macintosh plus? I assume this isn't possible but maybe if the CD has the correct
driver?
- Secondly, Can I create an 800k bootable system 7 disk, with a CD driver on my PowerMac G5 and put it on an 800k floppy (http://rescuemyclassicmac.com/), and boot the Macintosh Plus off that disk to use the CD drive?
My main goal is to use the CD drive to transfer files and as a sort of hard drive, not necessary to boot off it. Would that be possible?
