My New Mac II wouldn't boot from the hard disk but it would do everything else:

I FOUND THE PROBLEM!

As I said before, when booting I would get almost to the finder, then system
error ID=01 would show up.  It turns out that after reformatting the drive
it would work until a certain number of programs/data were uploaded.  So
today I reformatted and uploaded one at a time to find the culprit.

And here is the lineup, judge them as you will:

BeepInit and SoundInit

"Recognize either of these fellows, ma'am..." :)

They are public domain INITs from BCS.  Whatever you do, don't put them in the
system folder of a Mac II boot disk, hard or floppy.  They don't work.  I
didn't realize that they were the same kind of INITs that the Mac II uses
automatically, even if you don't install them with a resource editor.

So, as the emperor said in "Amadeus,"

"There it is..."

Thanks a lot to everyone who sent advice!
