Indeed. I googled a bit, but found nothing

That'd be cool.

If FTP is easier, you can also upload it to here:

ftp://darren:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
(host: linuxppc.ath.cx
 user: darren
 pwd : uploadmacos

I've no real size limits on email and the ftp site has plenty of space.

Can the image format a non-apple HD?

Large or small is not a problem. I just need something that can be an
origin, to format/partition a HD, install MacOS and get the rest of the
utils (stuffit/booter/mac68k distro) from CD, without having to rely on a
mac HD somewhere on a shelf (that might die), or reverting to slow and
unreliable floppies.

P.s. thanx again, I appreciate it.
