Unfortunatly it didn't work.

I ftp'd the file to my i386, and wrote the floppy with:

dd if=bootfloppy-980624.fs of=/dev/fd0a bs=10k

I booted the mac in MacOS (to re-read your instruction), then selected
restart. I threw the floppy in the drive. The machine went bong, the
screen turned gray, I got a mouse, and then it spun up the hard disk. It
then read the floppy (I could tell from the sound), and spat it out. It
then proceeded to boot MacOS.

Other suggestions?

Take care,

Bill
