Disk Tools 7.1 for Duo 280c
Posted by: bhuntsman on 2016-05-15 12:26:49
Hi there!

   Does anyone have a Disk Tools image for System 7.1.1 for the Duo 270/280?

Thanks!

Well, apparently this is quite a rare disk.  I put out feelers a few other places and couldn't come up with an original.

However, I was able to jury-rig one by finding another Disk Tools disk image for another model, use Mini vMac to delete the System Enabler for the other machine, copy in the Duo's Enabler, and dd the result to a physical floppy.  Worked like a charm, even if it's not the original bits.

Yeah, I just re-found 68kmla, I seem to forget about it. 

I found one of these in my "bucket o' floppies."  Verified boots a Duo 280c.  It's a copyright 1994 disk in the "red and black writing" label style, with System 7.1 with PowerBook Duo Enabler 2.0 on it, and is labeled "Version 2.0" on the label.

I'll image it shortly and reply when I have it uploaded somewhere.
