Mac floppy emu5/21/2023 Steve says: "The Mac 512Ke, Plus, SE, Classic, Classic II, Portable, IIci, IIsi, and LC-I have HD20 support built into ROM". For Mac 512k's with FUBAR physical drives, that's a problem. For the Mac 512k, you can use an HD20 hard drive, but you first need to boot from a physical floppy disk in order to load the "HD20 Init" - so it can see the HD20 drive. The HD20 option works well for a Macintosh Plus or an SE, but not great for a Mac 512k or a Mac SE/30, and not at all for an original Mac 128k. Steve at BMOW has yet to add the directions for setting up the HD20 in the Floppy Emu user manual (as of ), so here it is. Thanks! I recently put together some notes on the Floppy Emu that might help future Mac liberators:
