gecko, that is perfectly normal for a IIGS.

You will need to either find a 5.25" floppy drive and some software to boot, or a 3.5" drive and some software to boot, or even get a Localtalk box, and AppleShare 2.x (for sure) or 4.x (maybe) to remote boot the IIGS off the fileserver.. It's been a while since I did that with my IIGS machines though.

Ebay has a few really good priced 3.5" floppy drives up right now in the sub 20 dollar realm so that might be a good place to start. Do a google for the IIGS Fairway or similar and you will find a LOT of great IIGS software fwiw.

Good luck and excellent conquest!
