Hi Florian,

Thanks for putting together the new floppy image for me :)

Argh... From what I can see, PCMCIA initialization is usually done in an
initrd in cases like this, and this would work with a root floppy---but
then the lack of floppy support is the problem again :(

Oh well. At least the setup is useful for newer Macs without a CD drive.
For me, it looks like installing from the HD is going to be the only 
option.

Florian, I have a question regarding the disassembly of the 1400: When
you remove the speaker grille, do you have to unscrew that metal panel
on the right? The keyboard does not look like it will lift out without 
doing something else.
