This is what I do because Sys 7 keeps the Desktop DB and DF open, keeping
me from doing my disk defrag with Speed Disk:
1: Create a boot disk and install SCSI Probe on it
2: Boot, holding down Command-Shift-Option-Delete, keeping SCSI ID 0
disk driver from loading.
3: Insert the other floppy with Speed Disk on it.
4: run Speed Disk
5: use SCSI Probe to mount the disk
6: start defragging.
I have two floppy drives, you could put Speed Disk, SCSI Probe, and
the system onto one 1.44 meg floppy.
