MacOS Bootdisk.. Need one
Can anyone help me out here?
I am currently attempting to emulate Mac OS 8 on my PC, but I'll need a boot disk to get started I believe. I was wondering if anyone out there has a MacOS 7 or 8 boot disk that they can image for me? Perhaps BIN or .image format... Or if you can point me in the right direction. Thanks.

Funny that I'm emulating MacOS 8.1 using a hard disk image and MacOS CD, and I don't know how to create a boot floppy..

Really you guys dont' have one? AH I'm sorry I'm not on my mac right now (those of you who know me know I only know mac os 6-8.5) but you only need a few files, its much simplier than making a dos boot disk I assure you.
Rick if you havne't figured out one by tuesday I'll hook you up, but I imagine you will already have one by then or won't need one anymore. |

Mict - that one where you say you are emulating OS 8.1... thats not 8.1 buddy.... those "cool" colors didn't exist until at least 9.0 and I don't think they did until X.

I'll be very impressed if you can make a real mac look like that mict. as far as I know you just don't get that cool "aqua" interface in os 8

Here are complete instructions on how to make an OS 7.5 boot disk:
