That's okay. 8-) Yep, it used to be if you couldn't write your entire
program in 4k you weren't a *real* programmer. Even Bill Gates had his
head in the clouds when he decided that 640k was more than anyone would
ever need for a PC (it was 10 times what was standard at the time he was
stealing, er, writing DOS.)
Allow me to thank everyone who offered their help with my problem. Edwin
gave me the most clues which allowed me to solve the problem. I now have
a fully functional OS X installation with the ability to reboot back
into OS 8.6 I will look into getting Mac OS 9 when I find the offer from
Apple that said I could get the full set for around $40
