Re: System 6.0.1 Install Boot Floppy Question

[jmholmes@swbell.net (John)]

The install disk that I am using is the one that I downloaded from Apple.  The 
only SCSI device on there was an Apple HD20SC.  Just got a new SCSI Zip 250 
drive and have been playing around with that today.  And combined with 
MacOpener 2000 has proved to be a VERY efficient way of transporting 
downloaded files from my PC to my //gs since I can NOW read/write/format the 
HFS volumes on my PC!
