1) install Wish I Were, and ResEdit, and CD Sunrise or other driver, in the current OS
2) make a 7.5+ disk tools disk
3) delete stuff from it to make room for wish I were & its preferences, and CD driver
4) set wish I were to "PowerBook 5xx/PPC" . This name is WRONG. It is actually the 2300c ID.
5) copy CD driver, Wish I were extension (NOT control panel because it won't fit) and its preference file to the disk tools disk
6) Boot from the disk tools disk
7) DELETE the entire system folder from internal hard drive
8 ) Insert 8.5/8.6/9.0/9.0.4 CD, and install it on internal hard drive. Don't restart!!
9) Open ResEdit from hard drive, and open the hard drive System file
10) open "gusd" ID 1
11) change "007C 0024" to "007E 0024"
12) save, quit, restart, yay
In order to install any updates like 9.0.4 or 9.1 you need to set wish I were to "PowerBook 5xx/PPC" again
you might want nupower system update to fix the floppy bug too http://seth.mattinen.org/files/NUpowr_System_Update.sit
If you have installed 9.0.4 you will notice that the shown version is still 9.0. To fix this:
1) open the "PowerPC Enabler 9.0.4" in ResEdit
2) open "gbly" ID -16385
3) change "007C" to "007E"
4) open "gusd" ID 1
5) change "007C 0024" to "007E 0024"
6) save, quit, restart, yay
