You can use a second disk. Format a 800 kb disk in the G3 and copy the Iomega extension to it. Boot the SE with the boot floppy. Eject it with Command-E (a shadow will stay in the desktop). Insert the disk where you put the Iomega extension. Drag the Iomega extension to the shadowed disk and do as many disk swaps as the SE asks for :-) . Finally, put the Iomega extension in the boot disk's System folder and reboot the SE with it. To be sure, after this work is done, you can write-protect the boot disk so it doesn't get "unblessed" if you put it into the G3 by mistake.
