OK, here is what is bound to be a stupid question.

Why use the installer rather than just copying in a new set of
System/Finder/etc. files on a new disk?  I don't have a hard disk, all
I have is a lonely Mac512k (yes, that's right, the OLD ROMs).  When I want
to put a system on a new disk, I just copy the system folder from an existing
system.

Am I doing anything wrong????
