This is a legacy disk, that contains forked Macintosh and IIgs files. It
was built as an HFS disk, and so predates HFS+. It was originally built
with a fancy set of icons, so it looked good on the desktop under older
versions of the Mac OSX.

It mounts under the GS/OS operating system on a IIgs, and under OSX or
earlier Macintosh systems, and will burn to a disk with Disk Utility on
a Macintosh.

The size I put on the web site was that reported by Lion, which I keep
forgetting, appears to overestimate the size of a disk, as it calculates
the size in a different way to older OS versions.

I can fix the sizes reported on the web site, but as to putting it on
another disk system, this will depend if the system can handle forked
files! Suggestions please...
