I didn't get it working, I think the network was setup by the previous
owner(s), it is trying to conenct to some company, proxy or whatever. I
tried changing it to my DHCP, but not very hard.

10/100 hub. It should be running at 10, since the Amiga is connected. And
the PC does the receive the DHCP requests properly, and sends an IP offer
back, but never gets an answer to this.

I don't even have a CD drive in the Mac... and it did not like my external
CD-R. So even if I had the CD (where do I get one?), it would probably not
help.

I had a minimal install and upgraded that to 7.5.3, on my Amiga with
Shapeshifter. This install works fine on the PC with Basilisk, too. The
install from the Quadra works in the emulator as well, so I am not sure how
picky it is with the hardware. What I'd like to do is install 7.5.x from
scratch, I am not really sure what I have on the quadra, when I copied the
system to the large disk, I saw it copied inboxes, doc files. I deleted all
the m$ stuff already, but there is probably lots of unneeded stuff around,
and who know what drivers are still running...
7.5.x comes in 19 floppy images I think, I'd prefer not doing it with real
floppys, I don't have any floppy disks... I read instructions how to do it
in the emulator, or I could just copy the install I have already. But if I
get ethernet going with what I have, I don't care too much.
