I have a Quadra 610, which currently has System 7.x installed.

I have some programs which don't run on the Quadra under system 7,
even when I turn off 32 bit addressing, the 68040 cache, and colour.
Most especially, PageMaker 3 setup, which I really need to run...

So I think my next step is to install system 6 on the Quadra.

Is there a way to do this so that I can dual-boot system 6 and system
7? I seem to remember that one used to be able to 'bless' different
system folders on early Mac OSes. Can I still do that? How do I make
sure that my System 6 install doesn't screw up System 7? Would it help
if I used a second hard drive?

I also seem to remember that system 6 booted from a floppy. Can I do
that? The MacOS boot floppies I have don't seem to boot my Quadra.
Will I be able to make a System 6 boot floppy? How can I do that?

Thanks in advance,

Martyn
