No prob. My various problems have spanned about three threads at this point.

I have a Mac Classic II. What's happened is, while installing Open Transport, I
lost power. Now I get a ? disk icon when I boot, so I'm guessing the System
Folder got corrupted when I lost power. I need a boot disk to start from. My
other system is an eMac running OS X 10.3.4. I tried just copying the contents
of a bootable disk image to a floppy, but the Classic won't boot from that, I'm
guessing because the System Folder isn't blessed. The OS X bless command won't
work, because it can only bless OS 9 folders. What I just tried is using the dd
command to write the image directly to the disk, but that didn't work either.

Any ideas are appreciated, because I'm out.
