What is the best version of the Apple IIgs System Disk to use on a ROM 03 GS with a single 5.25" disk ][ drive? I realize this isn't the most desirable set-up, and I will upgrade to 800K media when I can afford it. ________________________ _________________________ | ProLine: crew@pro-harvest | | Internet: crew@pro-harvest.cts.com | | UUCP: crash!pro-harvest!crew | | ARPA: crash!pro-harvest!crew@nosc.mil | |_______________ BITNET: crew%pro-harvest.cts.com@nosc.mil _________________|

I'm afraid you're limitted to ProDOS 8 until you get an 800k drive. The minimum amnt of files you need to boot GS/OS won't fit on a 5.25" disk. The desktop file is about 104k. And counting the GS/OS files and fonts, etc... Takes up more than the extra 40k that's left of the 5.25" disk.
