Sorry I should have been more clear.

I tried unstuffing OS6.1 on my G4(os9.1) and the file was under 800k, when I
sent it through the network to the PowerMac (with the floppy drive) the file
would strangely grow to over 1meg??!?! I think this was due to the fact that
I was not using disk copy to make the disk (as the PowerMac does not have
DiskCopy and would not recognize the disk image).?  anyway I would try and
put files onto the disk and I would be able to get them on there but the
MacPlus would not boot from the various disks I tried making.   I know the
computer works as I had the 6.0.2 system disk but it was in French, and
everything seemed fine.  I have tried this procedure with varying results
usually winding up with a disk that just doesn't seem to get along with the
PowerMac.  I am sure the disks worked fine before hand because I had it
working fine, its just that the OS was in French, so I know the problem
arose once I began to copy files over it.

I only have 2 800k disks left and cannot find a place that sells them?

In other news.  I found a PowerBook 180C here at work and it would only come
on for a second when the powercord was jiggled around. It seems very poorly
designed (almost like a bad fit, nut its definitely the right one).  Is this
a common problem? I would like to get that one going too.

Thanks,

Dave
