Apple Legacy Software Recovery CD (MAC)

Apple Legacy Software Recovery CD

This CD was released by Apple to developers and was inadvertently leaked on the Apple FTP site a few months ago.

The CD boots into Mac OS 7.6.1 which should work fine for most 68k Macs and early Power Macs. I have booted it successfully on actual classic Mac hardware as well as in emulators.

It includes installers for every Mac OS from System 1.0 through Mac OS 8.1

All AU/X, Apple II, Lisa and Newton system software, utilities and drivers released by Apple are also included.

The image is an .iso and should work fine whether you burn it using a PC or Mac.

Let me know if you encounter any trouble using it.

From the readme:

• Contents: Apple System Software (Mac OS) for all 68000 to 68040 based Macintosh computers, all Apple-branded Newton software, all Apple-branded Apple II software, and all Apple-branded Lisa software.

• Start Up Capability: Mac OS 7.6.1; supports most Macintosh systems with 68030 or 68040 processors; an Apple-branded internal or external CD-ROM drive required to start up from this CD.

• Requirements: Any 68000 to 68040 based Macintosh computer; 8MB of RAM; an Apple-branded internal or external CD-ROM drive required to start up from this CD.

Note: Type this in Terminal: cat ~/Downloads/ALSR* > ~/Downloads/ALSR\.zip
