Do you by any chance have a Mac running OSX 10.4 or earlier? By taping over the hole on a 1.44mb disk you should be able to make a fake 800kb disk and put Apple's image on there, then you can try installing that onto your SE's hard disk. As long as you can get disk copy 4.2 running (which I was able to on a 350mhz iMac on system 9 through a USB floppy drive) you can make that disk! I'm assuming that 10.4 can run disk copy in 'classic' mode, but as I don't really use OSX others may have more info on the plausability of that. That's also assuming you have a floppy drive for said computer that can get the .sit file from Apple's website and also run disk copy 4.2....I got a little USB one and it works great on my vista laptop though it looks like it was designed for g3 imacs!
