Re: How do I start ProDos?

If your DOS 3.3 disk works in that same setup, then the problem will be that
your ProDOS User disk is faulty. You need to get a new copy, possibly over
the top of your existing disk, so you can keep the nice label. I'm not sure
what you else you have, but if you have Copy II Plus, most versions can
Verify your suspect Prodos User Disk. Use the Verify Disk option. If that
fails your disk is cactus. You can also try Verify Files and select all of
them, if that works formatting a new blank disk and copy all the files to it
should result in a new bootable ProDOS User disk.
