Updating Mac OS from v7.5.5 to 8.1?

Post by Guest »

Is this possible with the 8.1 (16MB)update from Apples support page?

If you grab the Mac OS file from Kazaa for OS 8, if you add as many components from 7.5.3 to it (extensions etc.) then install the Mac OS 8.1 update, it will update these and you are left with a nearly complete 8.1 install minus a few things.

But you can't update 7.5 unless you actually know how to hack the System file etc., so it's version number matches with 8.0, but even then I am not sure if this would work.
