I'm not sure if this helps but the toast image is just a plain Macos
disk image, i am able to access it using mac-fdisk/pdisk mounting the
gunzip'ed image file using loopback on linux. 

you should be able to copy the individual partitions (there are 4 useful
partitions. 

1: Partition Map
2: The Apple driver partition 
3: HFS                  partition with Macos    20M
4: Apple_UNIX_SVR2      AUX Slice               144Mb 
5: Apple_UNIX_SVR2      Swap Slice (why???)     12Mb
6: Apple_UNIX_SVR2      Root & /usr Slice       134Mb
7: Free Space                                   95Mb

Or you might just be able to block-copy the image onto a free Hard disk
(if you have one) as the partition table should be complete (although i
don't know what happens when the partition map doesn't match the disc
size in Macos) 

I Have no idea why the install CD Rom would have a Swap partition on
it.. thats just silly. 

Also not sure what the role of the Macos Partition is.
