<P> It is possible to use Basilisk II with a CD-ROM or floppy image, but

<P> Note that there is currently no Install CD image on Apple's Web site -
they only seem to have MacOS 7.5.3 floppy disk images (all 19 of them).
If you do not have a friend with an install CD, you can possibly make one
by copying the System Folder from a bootable OS 7 or 8 CD, and burning that
onto a CD with the floppy disk images.

This makes getting files into Basilisk II harder. Luckily, older versions of
Apple's "Disk Copy" utility can create a disk image file that is compatible
