I finally got the laser out of the box and hooked up but I think it
may be bad. When I start it I get the basic copyright then it tries to
load a disk and since I don't have one it it gives me the error and
tells me to insert one and press CTRL reset.

Ok so holding down enter when turning it on brings up the same error
and then goes to the ML monitor prompt '*'. Pressing CTRL C and enter
takes me to the basic prompt ']', but no matter what it type it will
beep after I hit enter and go back to the ML prompt.

Is this normal? The last time I used an apple 2 was 30 years ago in
10th grade. I used to know a lot about he,, now not as much I appears.
