Yes Peter it is, but slowly. I'm quite busy these days... I have asked Marc to send me the IMA files. I don't know how to get them because, when I run the exe files, Windows just start the process of making the disks. No Mac here. ;)

By the way, Marc, I believe we need the plugins Service Pack disks images too. Would it be possible to do the same with these as with the OS files?

I figured out how to extract the files and have uploaded the OS v5.1 and the Service Pack 3 files to the server.

Floppy Disk Creation Process for Mac users

The post has been edited by me be following a logical extrapolation from Marc's text, but I can't be sure if there is some steps missing or if there are some commands missing to get to the downloaded files.

Maybe the users should be directed to download the files to a known location on the hard drive and provide the UNIX command to get there before starting to write the disks.

This process have to be tested and, most probably, corrected. Please test and reply.
