  I've had the same problem's exactly!  I have the exact same configuration
as John and have experienced the exact same problems.  Does this mean I can't
run the new system software, but I thought the 128K roms in my machine were
the same as the ROM's in a Mac Plus, at least that's what the advertisments
for the Disk & ROM upgrade said.

  I would really suck if I can't run the new system.

  Me too, is this an oversight on Apple's part, or was the new system
designed so that 512Ke's are left out.  I'd be really interested to know.
