	After installing System 7.0 last nigh, I thought I screwed up the
	System File (by adding too many fonts), so I tried to manually
	reinstall the System File from the installation disk.  I put the
	current System File into the Trashcan and copied the System File
	from the Installation disk.  Well I noticed that the System File off
	of the Installation disk did not have any fonts or sounds.  Well I
	put the fonts in manually, and rebooted.

	All I got after the reboot was the menu bar and a busy cursor
	flashing on and off.  The Finder did not load.  Well I restarted off
	of a floppy and moved the "old" System File (7.0) back into the
	System Folder and trashed the System File that was corrupted.  So I
	am now running with a System File with too many fonts.

	Where and how can I get a copy of the default System File?  Or, how
	can I manually build the System File from the 800K Installation disks?


	Thanks in advance,

	=Mike
