I know it was used with other Plus and it booted from it.
If it works with another Mac then there likely isn't a
hardware problem with the drive. Which could mean the
Mac Plus isn't recognizing SCSI.
The other, more likely possibility is a system folder that
isn't blessed. The only way to check for that is look at the
system folder and see if it looks like a plain folder or if
it has an icon on it.
If you know someone with a Mac that has a floppy drive, you
could ask them to make you an 800k boot floppy. That would
let you see if the hard drive was being recognized or not.
They can download a disk image from Apples site.
