That'd be fine, since the IIe card requires 24-bit addressing, which also
isn't compatible with System 7.6.

I really just want to image some Apple II disks and send them over
the network for safe-keeping.  Or, serial might be another option; Apple
II disks weren't exactly huge (in terms of a 19.2k-baud link).
