If by "rejecting" you mean it spits the floppy out on boot, try doing the dd command I suggested earlier because I remember having a similar problem with my LC II that was fixed with the dd command.
To be honest, I have zero experience with Linux, I don't have access to a Linux distro (Or even knew if I did?).

I'm a bit confused, because with "WinImage" i was able to make a boot disk for 6.0.8 that the mac did recognise (after my computer got messed up by me) but unfortunately, My Mac would not install it as it said 6.0.8 was too old for it.. lol.

The files from the mac site posted earlier are also not all the same size, I thought that an Image would be 144MB or atleast all the same size, which they are not.

I then thought that maybe they were compressed, so I used Alladin expander, and then wrote this new uncompressed file to a disk as an image, but still no luck..

I'll keep on plugging away.. your help is greatly appreciated.

Surely others out there have done a fresh install of 7.0.1 on a classic or the like with only a PC and a bit of time? I can't be that much of a pioneer?

Much regards

Mike
