Go to the Control Panels, (System 7), and choose the Startup Disk. In both cases choose the external, whatever it's named, and then restart. If the external is connected right, and if it has a good System Folder on it, it will boot your SE. Jeff -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
