I am not an expert in this, but when I first tried to install System
7.1 on my AmaxIV I had a lot of problems, but for some strange reason
it worked the fourth time! I agree that there is a very high
sensitivity to floppy disk recognition and that changing disks with
Amax frequently does not work. My impression in general is that if I
move the disk icon to the trash (as opposed to "ejecting" the disk
via menu) it is more dependable. I guess this is hard to do with the
install program however. I never found out what I did the fourth
time that I did not do earlier other than to be persistent. Did you
mount and select boot disk from the Amax startup program?
