how to initialize a ProFile for use with a Lisa?? The
documentation implies that a special procedure is needed to
low-level format the unit and write boot blocks.
I am setup for Apple /// based low-level format (special Z8
piggyback CPU and firmware), but am unclear as to whether
this is the same as what the Lisa expects.? No clue how
to write boot blocks, though.
The Lisa's Office System can high level format the ProFile for Lisa use (including
boot blocks) when you install the OS - as can MacWorks. The low level formatting, however,
can only be done with the aforementioned Apple /// setup.
