Actually, I did get GEOS and I was able to install the whole thing on a
hard disk image. On the copy I downloaded, there was an About Piracy file
that said it wasn't copy protected. I used the Disk Maker program to first
install the GEOS on the hard disk image, then create a work disk. The only
thing it didn't copy was the Configure program and the extra drivers
(particularly the drivers I didn't need).
That was the only way I could copy it, though. Copying it by hand crashed it.
