Would be nice and simple to get going provided you've got the 3.5" drive
and a Mac...

Just connect up an external SCSI drive (connection is same as Mac), get
6.0.1 from Apples
ftp and use diskcopy on a Mac to write out the images. Then just boot
the installation
on the GS and do an install to the HD.

Easy :)
