Mini vMac

Surprisingly enough, I read Getting started with Mini vMac, I gave it an old ROM (I have an old SE ... and why do most versions of CopyROM give me a corrupt ROM?), I fired it up ...

... moment of doubt at the floppy with a flashing question mark ...

File menu, Open Disk Image to a bootable image like System Startup extracted from SSW_6.0.8-1.4MB_Disk1of2.sea.bin, and voila!

Shockingly easy, in fact.

UPDATE: the mini vMac blanks are handy! I renamed hfs20M.DSK to hfs20M.dmg, and it mounted just fine (both sides, OS X 10.5.7 and mini vMac 3.0.4-imch). Sure, I could use Disk Utility to make a new custom 20M image as Mac OS Standard and read-write, but I think the download was faster!
