No, you copy the second one onto an 800K 3.5" inch disk. And you don't
copy the files themselves, either. You'll have to get a Mac and a program
called DiskCopy.

AppleShare won't install on a IIgs. You have to get a Mac and install onto
that. The IIgs already has code to access the files on the Mac using
AppleShare.
