This won't work.
BTW The system 7.0 disk tools floppy contains system 6 system folder, you
could give that a shot. But you need at least 7.01 for the pb 140 and I
don't know what kind of system folder they put on the 7.01 disk tools
floppy.
The only apple laptops that are supposed to run system 6 are the original
mac portable and the pb 100.
