It's likely the last parts where your difficulty lies but this was the
whole procedure I used as well as I remembered it

I'm using OS 7.7.5 and a 2gb hard drive with 2 32mb ProDOS partitions.
I temporarily connected the drive to an OS 9 system and used Apples
Drive Setup to format and partition the hard drive. After the drive
was formatted, I used Special->Erase Disk to reinitialize the
ProDOS partitions. I then moved the drive to my CC and installed
OS 7.5.5

After installing the IIe card software on the Mac partition I booted the
software and used the IIe Option panel (CMD-Cntl-Esc) to set things up.
In the Slots Option, I put
Slot 7 Clock
Slot 6 floppy drive
Slot 5 Smart port
Slot 4 Mouse
Slot 2 empty
Slot 1 Appletalk

In the Smartport option I put

Slot 5 my two ProDOS partitions
Slot 2 The disk drive

Then just started loading my software using ProSel 8 as a program
selector
