    Hi everybody,

    I am in the need of a bootdisk for an old MAC (14 years old). There is no way to get it from MacIntosh, nor to find it in the internet any more.
    Maybe one of you still has a copy laying around. A diskimage probably would do it.

    Thank you
    It´s an Apple workgroup Server 60

        I already tried that one - and many others.

        Apple Computer, Inc. decided to eliminate older System Software from any distribution anywhere.
        Unfortunately the older Mac collectors have lost.

        Thank you anyway

            Thanks for the link. I found a set of 19 Floppy disk image files. I don´t know if it´s possible and how to transfer that image to a floppy on a Windows-PC.

              They are smi (self-mounting images). You will probably need a Mac with a floppy drive running a Classic MacOS (7-9) to put them onto real floppy disks.
