Now you just need the 4MB expander for that.

Why do you have the HD in 5, and the 3.5 in 7 (backwards from normal)?

I want to be able to boot from floppies if I want to. If the HD was in 7, it'd always boot to the HD (overriding the floppies).

But it's trivial to run a program from the hard disk to boot from
either floppy.  In fact, if you boot to the Applesoft prompt, just
a "pr#6" or "pr#5" will boot the respective floppies.

ProSel 8 boots to a menu screen and it is common for a couple of
the menu items to be "Boot slot 6" and "Boot slot 5".  Always booting
first from the hard drive also allows the Zip Chip utility to run,
configuring it for your machine setup.

If you're not currently using ProSel and its suite of utilities to
manage your hard drive, you will be delighted with the power and
range of capabilities it provides.
