You are able to download the necessary IIGS-system from the
apple-download site using a PC.
You will need Stuffit/DiskCopy on your Mac to expand these and make
disks(800k,ProDOS).
For further info you may look at the apple discussion
forum(Support>Discussion) on the older software forum(System7.x) You
will find there detailed instructions also to connect via LocalTalk to
your IIGS from your Mac(Older Hardware Forum, Pre -G3,or Other
Hardware).Try a search with IIGS(or AppleIIFreak).
Good luck
