Thye Chean,

I'm sure this is redundant but have you gone into the control panel
and set the boot slot to slot 5? I'd find it hard to believe that ALL
your 3.5 disks are bad, unless you had them stored together. Another
thing you could try is to get a copy of ADTPro, and the appropriate
cables, and transfer a few 3.5 disk images from your Mac to the GS to
see if making a new disk will work for you.
