Just got a harddrive, external SCSI with card. I would like to hook this
up to my Apple IIGS. I have downloaded Apple IIGS OS 6.0.1 from the Apple
site. When I boot the computer with disk 1 of the OS, I get an error to
check startup devices. I get this even when I don't have the SCSI card in
the computer. The disks are formatted MAC, do they need to be formatted
ProDOS?, Apple IIGS specific, or?
thanks

You need to tell the GS the disk controller is there. I forget the key
sequence to go into setup mode, but you need to tell the GS either to scan
its slots for the bootable device, or which slot to boot from.
