Would be nice if I could use that. I have 10.3 (no classic), and I have 
7.1 on the Mac I am trying to "play" with.

The NetBSD installer? Yes, again that would be great, but I was trying 
to find out if there's any way I could "fake" boot sectors using just 
the 7.1 Mac, just to see if I can make those floppies boot. What would 
I run the NetBSD installer on right now? I can't even partition the 
drive in the Mac without having a boot floppy to run the Disk Utility 
from.
