1.44meg images on 800k machines.

Posted by: BadGoldEagle on 2016-08-20 09:50:13 Hi I'm finishing up a 6.0.8 installation for my SE.  One thing I miss from system 7+ is Disk Copy 6, and the ability to create 400k, 800k and 1.44meg images. I have found a nice little program called MountImage: It will work great with DC42 images, but it won't work at all with 400k and 800k disks that are not DC42 images and of course it won't work with 1.44meg images. I think there was once a DC42 converter in the wild... But it still won't support 1.44meg images! Maybe the software's not good enough, is there a good alternative to Disk Copy 6 on System 6? PS: Slightly off topic, but I can't remember the name of the program that lets you create your own Apple Menu folder for System 6. Any help appreciated.  Thanks!

Posted by: sstaylor on 2016-08-23 17:47:27 Shrinkwrap might be good, except the 2.0 version requires system 7.  Maybe there's an older version out there somewhere?  I didn't see any with some quick googling, but I didn't spend much time with it.

Posted by: BadGoldEagle on 2016-08-26 02:08:11 I too was thinking about Shrinkwrap but I can't source the 1.x version either... Edit: macgui.com has version 1.3 testing it right now.

Posted by: BadGoldEagle on 2016-08-26 02:19:20 Nope, Shrinkwrap 1.3.1 requires 7 and up! Dang it.
