I got a MacLC two days ago and realizing that an older system won't run,
decided to install system 607 onto my hard disk.  However even when using 
the master System disk that Apple provided with the LC unit (to run the
Installer) I kept getting this message that installation was unsuccessful 
and that I'd have to use an original copy of the System disk.  I ended
up replacing the System, Sound, and Keyboard files with my older versions
in my external hard drive by draggig icons instead of using the installer
(which worked), but can anyone in netland help me on why the Installer failed?

If I have a defective copy, is there anything I can do to get a copy that
works without having to call Customer Service to be put on hold for half
a day?  (The dealer was no help, they told me to call Customer Service)
