Wow, thanx a lot Bill! I have wondered how I could get the OS9 stuff of
those Restore CDs.
I have 10.3, and the image is called "OS9General.dmg" on my discs
(Norwegian version).
It contains a full System Folder for 9.22 and an Applications folder.
But sadly, not a full 9.22 INSTALLER...
However, when I look on those Restore disks using Terminal under X ("ls
-a"), I find an invisible directory on each called .images, with .dmg
files for X, 9.2.2, & apps like Appleworks, etc. (The X restore images
cover 3 disks.)
I can go into that invisible directory ("cd .images"), copy those .dmg
files to a hard drive ("cp * /[whatever the path you want]"), mount on
the
desktop, & copy to my heart's content -- at least the 9.2.2 disk image,
which produces a perfectly bootable system when copied to a disk (a few
aliases are screwed up), & the apps.
