Yes friends, I have a zippy new Tecmar 10Mb hard disk and I
can safely say that it makes a better paperweight than a mass storage
device. But I have discovered how to move fonts onto the hard disk.
Here's teh secret:

1) Disconnect Tecmar and startup with regular Mac System disk.

2) Insert MacDrive System disk and copy font mover and fonts to it.

3) Eject regular system disk.

4) Open Font Mover on MacDrive System Disk.

5) Move them fonts.

6) Eject MacDrive System Disk and Restart Macintosh.

7) Plug in zippy MacDrive hard disk type thingie to Macintosh.

8) Switch both devices on and allow Macintosh to boot from
MacDrive System Disk

9) Copy System file from MacDrive Diskette to MacDrive Hard Disk.


That should work.
