A recent check indicates that, Yes, you can download System 6.0.1 from
Apple at ...
ftp://ftp.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple.Software.Updates/US/Apple_II/
Look in the folder --> Apple_IIGS_System_6.0.1/ .
The catch is that only the for-Mac versions of the diskettes (in Mac .sea
files) seem to be available.
This is a fairly recent change; the for-GS .bsc files were present only a
couple months ago; now, they are gone. (The info file in the folder continues
to claim that both for-Mac and for-GS versions are available.)
Users can still download the System 6.0.1 disk files and Install
directions from Apple Cabi.net at ...
ftp://apple.cabi.net/pub/applegs/System/Sys601INSTALL/
There is a text file with installation directions plus the six System disks in
plain shrinked disk form. The .sdk files just need to be unshrinked to 3.5"
diskettes via GS-ShrinkIt or 8-bit ShrinkIt.
