But every once in a while, something that you discover at the bottom of one of those holes ends up being very rewarding.

This article is an example of that.

Nice work.

I wish more sites took linkrot seriously like this.

Of course this is retrocomputing … have you tried running current versions of Safari or Chrome under macOS 10.7? They simply won’t work. The speed at which obsolescence and lack of support occurs in regards to hardware and software is increasing. Twelve year old software is ancient, especially in the eyes of Apple.

It’s far more flexible than something that just spits out an .iso image.

From the site:

“… create disk images that work in devices like BlueSCSI, Floppy Emu and PiSCSI / RaSCSI, as well as in emulators like Basilisk II and Mini vMac. The macOS version also analyzes images that either contain a single volume, or entire devices. It can show the contents of HFS, MFS and ProDOS partitions. And it can perform a few neat tricks like converting an existing image that works on Basilisk II into an image that works on BlueSCSI or PiSCSI / RaSCSI, or replacing your Lido SCSI driver by a classic driver that will improve performance in modern solutions.”

And you can’t boot into Mac System 6 directly off an .iso … just saying.

No worries. Didn’t notice anything from western Canada either.

Appreciate all the work put into this site.
