Oh this takes me back. Unless you bought some manner of modded beast, your
IIc has no harddrive and runs off a system floppy disk that you insert at
start up. If a disk didn't come with your machine, you'll need to get one,
make one, or have one made for you. Check the group FAQ for all the how
to's. ^__^
