I know that he had it set up so once it started the boot was from the HD. I just need details on how to set up a floppy boot as I have no drivers. Once I get the drives back working, I'll be able to create what I need. Then I'll work on converting itall over to Nitro.

>From what I can remember, you can boot it off of a floppy, as long as /dd etc. 
n the boot file points the B&B, and you have the B&B driver in the bootfile 
you can boot even faster if you have the special B&B BOOT module on the kernal 
rack of the floppy, and then you can load OS9Boot, etc. from the hard drive 
tself).

 Anyone have ANY info on booting OS9 on a Burke & Burke HD system?  I think 
t's one of their older systems.
 This has no ROM and I have no boot disk. It seems the original owner had a 
isk that booted it from Basic with "DOS"
