Hi folks,

I recently got an old Macintish IIsi. Currently it runs MacOS 7.1,
what makes the machine unusable.

I'm going to install NetBSD, but AFAIK one has to run MacOS 7.5 up to
do so.

How the "FUC%&§$&§&" do I get this machine to boot from floppy? It has
no CD-ROM, but there is a working ethernet adaptor built in.

Since it seems not to be capable of booting from net, DHCP/BootP/TFTP
is no solution, I need to get this thing booting from FDD.

Does anyone know the key combination to boot a IIsi from FDD?

cheers,
\end{kryz}
