That's what I've decided to do, actually.

I figured out a "poor man's" way to bless and unbless folders. I just hid the system file in another folder on the Sys 6 partition, and it booted off the System 7.1 partition just fine. But then I tried to turn the 32bit addressing on and it lock,ed up on reboot. I removed Mode32 from the system folder and it started loading but then came to a system error in loading the finder. System 7 is too much work. :) So, I'm back to system 6. But I did finally get the internal hard drive working on my modified SE/30. Now it is installed inside right on top of the CDROM.
