Hi there!

I had my SE/30 working, then reformatted the drive and now I can't get anything to work again :disapprove:

I am using Silverlining 5.8.3 to partition the drive because I'm intending to dual-boot it with A/UX. I use a 4.3 GB harddisk. Here is what I did:

1st Volume (according to Silverlining) 2GB HFS

2nd Volume 4MB HFS (intended for A/UX boot)

Installed A/UX's 7.1 to the 2nd Volume => boots

Installed the same to the 1st Volume => also boots

Installed 7.5.3 from Apple's download page to the 2GB Volume => boot loop

I can see the 7.5.3 as bootable in SystemPicker and select it, so I reckon it should be bootable - in general.

What drives me particularly crazy is the fact that I had it running :-(

I also tried everything I could think of - of course including smaller partition sizes. Nothing helped.

Before going on searching for the needle in the haystack.... could someone please point me in the right direction?

TIA

Steffen
