I recommend if you have a PC with SCSI, locate a 40MB SCSI hard drive, connect
it to your Apple //e, load all the software you think you'll ever need onto
the 32MB partition, yank the drive, put it in your PC, find a CD-R drive
and use GoldenHawk's DISK2CD utility to create your own bootable
Apple //e CD-ROM. I made two CD's, one with bootable GS/OS and another
for me //e. This works quite well when a program like Marinetti hoses
your GS/OS installation. All it takes is a quick copy from the CD, and
what's better is you can boot into GS/OS from the CD!
