Indeed. I googled a bit, but found nothing > The file is 9mb, a mac image and can be segmented and sent to you. 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.

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.
