Some further discussions/ideas on Disk Image creation of emulator (large capacity) disk drives.A DOS formatted 1GB disk image (2nd DL on that page) - which is mainly intended for use with Mini vMac and file exchanges between Mini vMac and a Mac host running Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or later.If anyone plans to use it note the comment below about HFS+. If using this with Basilisk II running Mac OS 8.1, HFS+ disk drives can only be used as a secondary disk drive.ģrd DL: a 10GB HFS+ disk image for Mac emulators running a Mac OS 8.1 to 9.0.4Ĥth DL: a 10 GB HFS disk image for Mac emulators running a Mac OS 7.0 to 9.0.4 (tho' for emu's running 8.1 or later, its better to use HFS+ and not HFS).ĥth DL: is the 6GB image from Emaculation, it's HFS+ Journaled, mainly meant for PearPC, but also usable with other emulators after initializing.Ħth DL: a 3 GB HFS disk image for Mac emulators running a Mac OS 7.0 to 9.0.4 (again, for emu's running 8.1 or later, its better to use HFS+ and not HFS).ħth DL: 120GB disk image HFS formatted. To expand on Windows simply use WinRAR or any other ZIP extracting tool.Ģnd DL: above is for a 30GB HFS+ disk image for Mac emulators running a Mac OS 8.1 to 9.0.4Ĭompressed as bzip2, to expand on Windows simply use WinRAR or any other ZIP extracting tool or use commandline: bzip2 -d big-32g.img_.bz2 In any case patience is needed and enough space to store the inflated image. You may inflate it in OSX with The Unarchiver or by running bunzip2 from the command line.Ĭopy this into Terminal, presuming your bz2 is located in /Classic:īunzip2 -c /Classic/2 > /Classic/HD30.img The file is compressed with bz2, so its only 41kbyte. These are empty (blank) Mac formatted disk images, ready to be used with Mac emulators, SheepShaver & Basilisk II (maybe Mini vMac with the HFS drives)ġst DL: is a HFS Standard IMG for emulators, expanding to a little more than 30GB.
