Lemme pull my foot out of my mouth so I can answer... 8)

My comments were quite unclear.  I was refering to the systems I have:
LCII, LCIII and IIsi, and that is it.  The Mac68k platform has
suffered from a relatively small number of users and a small amount of
HW in the hands of key developers.  My statement made it sound like I
was *sure* it would work for you, and actually, I thought it would,
but it was from semi-educated guess and the possibly bogus statement
that the Classic II is based on the LC-II.  Obviously, all it takes is
one minor difference between the Classic II and the LC-II and things
break.
