The picture has changed rather suddenly! Today I stopped at my favorite
thrift shop and picked up an external SCSI drive and case for under $10.
Imagine my pleasure when it turned out to contain a Quantum Trailblazer
- the 800k one - loaded with MacOS 7.5.3 and numerous applications. I
also stuffed some more memory into the SE/30 so it seems a bit more
comfortable :)

I will still pursue the bootable partitioned disk approach, but the
later OS problem is certainly solved.

Thanks!
