Pardon my Mac ignorance, but HOW do you make a bootable floppy from an
existing HD install of the Mac OS?  I have been using the Mac OS since
System 7.0 was new and I have not figured this out yet.

Considering the system suitcase is upwards 19 MB (yes, I have lots of sounds
in mine), and the Finder is also rather large at 2.3MB, how do I do this?
