My IIgs accepts boot blocks from a Mac SE/30 running ASFSv2. However, I can't
get it to boot GS/OS right (only Basic.System boots properly) over the network
though it runs System 6 fine from a floppy. Has anyone been able to fit all
the needed components to boot up GS Finder and mount AppleShare volumes on a
single floppy? I couldn't get all the pieces of the CDEV and a skeletal OS
to fit into 800K.
