If you steal the ROM SIMM from those relatively rare IIsis that have one,
or those relatively rare IIfxs, that will make the SE/30 32-bit clean, and
thus able to boot 7.6.
I am also told that PDS upgrades, such as an '040, will allow the SE/30
to boot up to 8.1.
That would make sense, since PDS upgrades usually include a
ROM e.g. because the '040 MMU is very different from the
'030 MMU.
