[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1414365, member: 56379"] Just wanted to get a better understanding of your goals.:) BELIEVE me...this is a VERY difficult & complex project. Having or obtaining original OS floppy install disks is really the most sensible solution. Here's a link to Macintosh system software 6.0.3: [url=http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/English-North_American/Macintosh/System/Older_System/System_6.0.x/]Index of /Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/English-North_American/Macintosh/System/Older_System/System_6.0.x[/url] Your challenge is how to get it downloaded from the internet...and onto 3.5" floppy disks...so that it can be installed onto the SCSI hard drive. You have many hardware hurdles here...and it would take me an hour to properly describe all of them...and list the options to overcome the hurdles (which would include buying more computers to get the job done). So that really leaves only one sensible option...finding/locating/purchasing original Mac OS 3.5" floppy install disks (which is not very easy 25 years later). - Nick p.s. By the way...you said that Mac SE's are collectable in your country. ANYTHING can be "collectible"...but valuable is another thing. In the United States...I can buy these for $10-$15 dollars each. So yes collectible...but not valuable. [/QUOTE]
