Huh? You didn't indicate how the Classic reacts to the 7.0.1. The most common problem is whatever application you used inside Basillisk II did not encode the disk as a startup disk. Assuming you did compensate for that, Where are you getting the complete copy of the 7.0.1? If you made it with the floppy images, then it may not include the enablers for the Classic II. If you are trying to use the System Tools floppy as the startup system from a CD-ROM, that may also not be supported because it does not contain the resources necessary to support booting from a CD-ROM. Lots of variables here.

well evantualy i was able to get Basilisk II to write the data onto a 1.44MB floppy disk by jummyrigging my desktop computer with a floppy drive that it didnt really have the case space for, but the sys710 install isnt reacting to well to the sys701 system and finder probably becasue of hte hard disk drivers are for sys710. but i need to save some of hte data from the Classic II HDD or i would just format it with the sys701 drivers. i've got a xternal HDD mount thingie that i can put a hard drive into but i dont know how to configure the jumpers for this perticular hard drive, so when i hook it up it causes an error in the entire scsi bus and none of the scsi devices are accsessable, i belive thats becasue when there are no jumpers set at all on this drive it sets itself to ID0 witch if i remember correctly is where the SCSI controler is at, (its been forever so i dont remember is mac scsi puts itself at the end or the begining of the chain)
