Well, it seems Bunsen does not like me
I did a search on these forums for both terms, but nothing came up. I ALWAYS search before I ask.
Oh well...
In any case, I tried booting the II from 3 separate 6.0.3 boot disks I have, and I got a smiling mac for a second, and then rejection. I tried the disks in my 540c, and they all mounted fine, so I have a bad disk drive. I should have known when the disks would not go into the drive easily, I had to take the top cover off to load them into it. So now I need to hunt down a replacement (I think I have some FDHD drives, which I have used as 800K only drives in the past just fine.), or I might rip the unit apart and clean it up a bit.
Until I can get it to boot, I will take the beastly 5.25" HD into another mac and attempt to put 7.5.3 on it, and update that to 7.5.5.
