Hello everyone

i just go myself a brand new second hand Mac Classic.
Now, i've never used these before and i ask myself many questions but first:
how do i get it to boot! I get the floppy-with-a-question-mark icon.

I figured i would need a boot dick of some sort, so i got the system 6.0.8
disk off of apple via download, and since i dont have a floppy on my every
day Mac, i switched to my pc to make the boot disk (yea i did get something
that can read and make Mac disk -> MacDrive 5).

Now well equiped, i tried the newly created disk in the Mac Classic's mouth
only to have it rejected and still getting this floppy-with-a-question-mark
icon.

Can someone be kind enough and help me out? If not i'm afraid i will have to
MacQuariumize the new old mac, and that'd be sad wouldn't it?

Thanks,

Ugo
