No prob. My various problems have spanned about three threads at this point.
I have a Mac Classic II. What's happened is, while installing Open Transport, I lost power. Now I get a ? disk icon when I boot, so I'm guessing the System Folder got corrupted when I lost power. I need a boot disk to start from. My other system is an eMac running OS X 10.3.4. I tried just copying the contents of a bootable disk image to a floppy, but the Classic won't boot from that, I'm guessing because the System Folder isn't blessed. The OS X bless command won't work, because it can only bless OS 9 folders. What I just tried is using the dd command to write the image directly to the disk, but that didn't work either.
Pick a boot disk and I'll image and post it, should work with dd, rawrite, winrawrite, winimage(?). You may have trouble with the floppy drive in the emac.
6.0.8 images require blessing when downloaded from the usual places I've found. OS's above all seem to work fine. A 6.0.+ image would contain a blessed sys folder if thats what you'd require.
Another possibility may be using the OSX port of Basilisk II to write the image to the emacs floppy while emulating the classic2.
I'll save you from a pile of links that say rawrite (dd) works with mac disk image files as I've tried and failed to get this to work on both nix and doze for vintage or compact macs. ymmv ;)
cheers.
