[comp.sys.apple] Unidisk with //c

mw22+@andrew.cmu.edu (Michael Alan Wertheim) (09/20/89)

I recently bought a used Unidisk (no documentation) for my //c.  I attached
it to the external drive port, and it appears as S5,D1.

I would like the drive to appear as S7,D1 so that it will boot instead of
the built-in drive.  Is there any way to do this?

Please send any replies directly to me (mw22+@andrew.cmu.edu).

Thanx,

Really.  The Boot code for the UniDisk 3.5 compatible Apple //c's will boot 
the first Smartport drive if it can't find anything in the internal drive.
(In your case the first Smartport device is your UniDisk 3.5 @ S5,D1)
