Hello, I'm totally new to Vintage Macs and System 6.
I've a Macintosh SE (with an internal HDD) wich boots to the floppy- with-question-mark icon. I figured I needed some boot disks. I bought a Classis (because of the 1.44 MB drive) and was able to make some bootdisks using my iMac with USB floppy drive. Now the Macintosh SE boots with the 1st disk from the System 6.0.8 800K disk set. There is no HDD icon on the desktop and when I'm running the Installer from the boot disk, it doesn't find a HDD when pressing "Switch disk". The LED on the front of the SE blinks, but I don't know if this means there is HDD activity or not. I don't hear HDD sounds, though. I have another 2 SE's and a SE/30. Can I simply get a HDD out of a spare SE (cases are bad, but they boot into System 6 without boot disk) and reformat it? Kind regards, Niels R. PS: The Classic boots into System 6.0.3. Does this mean it boots from it's ROM? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Vintage Macs group.
