Boot sequence, Emax HD

2014-01-10 by niklas.ehrlin@...

Hi

Working on getting an old Emax HD (rack) going. I know that the internal HD is faulty, and now I'm trying to load the OS via the floppy (with EMAX-formatted DD floppys).
But my question is this: Is the OS originally placed on the HD on the HD models?
And if this is faulty, will the EMAX automatically try to load OS from an inserted floppydisk? Or is there anything els I need to do (changing the SCSIid's or something)?
And last - If the OS can be loaded by floppy, does it matter if the faulty internal HD still is connected inside?
Thanks for any advise.
Niklas
