Bring up the control panel in 5.4 (nice layout guys, much improved over the
clockless previous), click on the startup device (bottom) icon, then
click back on the mouse icon and (as Tex Avery used to say) kerblooey. I'm
running an SE with two floppies and nothing but a mouse hooked into it (and
I mean nothing, Apple didn't send us our keyboards when they shipped our
SE's) and when I click on "startup device" I get a blank-right-half of the
dialog box.  

What the?  How the? Who the?
