Apple IIGS: How To Set Slots for AppleShare



I have an AppleShare network with a Macintosh SE server connected to Apple
IIGS and Apple IIe computers.

One Apple IIGS has a SCSI hard drive. When I use this Apple IIGS on the
network, I have its Control Panel slot settings to Startup Slot=Slot 7, and
Slot 7 set for built-in AppleTalk.

I want to install AppleShare and the Apple IIGS Desktop/Finder to the hard
drive and use it as a startup device so I can sign on to the server using
the Control Panel. Since both AppleTalk and the hard drive seem to require
slot 7, how can I use both at the same time?

The SCSI hard disk does not have to be in slot 7.

- If you want to start up from the hard drive, place the hard drive
controller in slot 2 and set your startup slot to 2 in the Control
Panel.

- If you want to start up over the network, leave the start-up slot as
7 and set slot 7 as AppleTalk.
