Chris,
I do insert the floppy before booting, but it goes unrecognized
unless I use the cmd-opt-p-r key combination after the reboot chord.
It would be normal to expect it to eject a non-bootable disk, but
I've never seen the machine eject the disk except as part of the net

I've figured out either the answer or a superstitious work around.
If this is not "forcing" a boot from floppy, then it might be nice to
link to an explanation or explain in the manual itself what is really
happening.
The 7600 I have won't boot from the floppy unless cmd-opt-p-r

Hi,
First, what key sequence must one use to force a boot from floppy on
an old-world macintosh? (and which of fn/ctrl/alt/"apple")
correspond to "cmd" and "opt"
Second, it would be really nice to have this information in the
installation manual. It could fit in section 5.3 "Booting from
