Included with your Apple IIe Card is a disk called
IIe Startup Disk, which
has the necessary Apple IIe Card software and the correct version of
Macintosh system software already installed. To use it, you need to make
a copy of the disk and make sure you have the correct software for your
printer, as described in the next two sections.
Once you finish this section, it’s important to remember that you have
your Apple IIe Card software on a floppy disk. Many tasks in this book
will have special notes for
floppy disk startup people. When you see one
of these notes, remember that it applies to you.
Making a copy of the floppy startup disk
To make sure you always have a safe copy of the
IIe Startup Disk, don’t
ever use the original. Instead, make a copy and set the original aside for
safekeeping.
You can find instructions for copying disks in the books that came with
your Macintosh.
When you are finished, put the original away and keep the copy ready for
use. Don’t lock the copy.
