Thought I would post something interesting I found today
Was trying to get some files on my PowerBook 1400, and hitting the problem of really bad floppies
Just to cheack the drive wasn't to fault I put in my 7.5 network access disk, and it worked, so out of pure curiosity I rebooted with the disk in the drive to see what happend. And you know what, it seemed to boot (but failed as the iMac won't run 7.5)
So maybe it is not the Mac OS rom containing the driver, but it blocking it from loading it from the firmware
