Mac OS 8.1 for a Mac IIfx (or maybe just a 68030)

It is possible to install Mac OS 8.1 onto a Mac IIfx and I have done so (it involved ResEdit).
The file above is a stuffed (v4) copy of my bootable Mac OS 8.1 volume.

I'd be happy if someone else would try to see if they can use it on their IIfx. Indeed, it may even work on other 68030 Macs. This I haven't tried yet. Mac OS 8.1 needs at least 16 MB RAM.

My IIfx doen't feel that much slower (in comparison to System 7.1) and I installed it so that I could access the HFS+ volumes on my B&W G3.
