I have a MacIIx with two systems on it (arabic and english). When I boot
the machine I always boot in the arabic system. I tried to switch to the
english system using the <option,command> combination as indicated in the
manual but I always get the following message "system busy". One remark
though, my two system reside on the same hard disk. When I try to switch 
to the english system from a floppy it works fine. I am not interested in
switching from the floppy ... too slow. I would like to find a way to switch
between two startup systems on the same hard disk. Did anyone out there
encountered the same problem ? Any solutions, I need help ??????
