Is the DOS 6.0 disk a 3-1/2" disk or 1 5-1/4" disk?  Whichever physical
size it is, are you sure it's 'double density' (i.e., 720K or 360K) and
not 'high density' (1.4M or 1.2M)?  Floppy drives connected to the PCT can
only use 720K and 360K floppy disks.

Have you been able to boot from this same DOS 6.0 disk before?

Have you tried booting from any other MS-DOS 'system' disk?
