Chose 'EtherTalk' when you install System 7, then drag the EtherTalk file
from your Phase 1 installation disk to the Extensions Folder inside the
System folder.  Open the network CDEV, select the Phase 1 Icon instead of the
Phase 2 Icon and you're in.  (The Phase 2 Icon has double arrows, the
Phase 1 icon has single arrows)

The Phase 1 EtherTalk file will not be shipped on the System 7 installation
diskettes -- just Phase 2.  System 7 does work fine with the old Phase 1
EtherTalk file; we just don't distribute it as part of System Software
like we do with the Phase 2 EtherTalk file.
