Using a Mac to make IIgs bootable disks

[Nicholas Xanthakos <xanthako@bc.edu>]

Hello everyone,

I've been searching around the old posts looking to see if anyone had
dealt with this issue before, but no luck.

What I want to do is use a Mac to write a 3.5dd IIGS compatible pro-dos
disk directly from a .2mg or a .shk file.  In other words, I would like
to do everything on the mac and just insert the disk into a IIGS and go.

I figure this would be much easier than transferring the .shk/.2mg files
over to the IIGS and then processing them so that they are useable.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks in advance

P.S. I guess this process is similar to the one I used to get system 6
from the apple FTP site onto 3.5 floppies.  If I remember correctly
those disks were in binary format and I used diskcopy.
