I recently upgraded my Mac Plus (2Meg RAM) to System 6.0.3 from 6.0
and all went well till I tried to power up the next time.  Now, 
EVERY time I power on my Mac and hard disk, it shows the "smiley
Mac", then displays my startup screen (where Welcome to Macintosh
usually appears if no startup screen is used)...fine so far.  Then
just before it starts to load my INITs, a dialog box pops up and 
says, 

    "The alternate AppleTalk driver could not be found.
     The built in network will be used instead."

It then has a single button for "OK".  After clicking the OK, all
works like it should...INITs are loaded and the desktop appears.

When I ran under System 6.0, it never did this to me.  What gives?!!
If you have a suggestion or better yet, an answer to this problem,
please let me know!

I have tried during off all INITs using the INIT-CDEV 2.0 cdev.
I have made sure the "Responder" system file is gone.
I have fiddled with the Chooser.
Nothing has helped.

All System files are version 6.0.3.  I did use the Installer to
load those files that it deals with.  The printer resources were
copied manually.

I am not on any AppleTalk network.
Cache RAM is ON, AppleTalk network is OFF.
I have an ImageWriter I connected to my printer port.
I have a 40M h/d connected to my aftermarket SCSI port.

Any clues??  If so, let me know via a post to this group or e-mail.

Thanks!
