Have you tried making a small mac partition and copying the contents of the floppy accross to that partition. I believe this should work to boot the machine? It does here although I get a warning saying the system folder is from a floppy before the desktop loads, once bootx is installed you dont need to get that far. :)
Yes, I can do that. The problem is that the machine refuses to acknowlege the existence of the CD in these circumstances :(

grab the apple cd-rom 5.4.img.bin and add the cd extension to the extension folder in the little system folder and your cd should come up as it does here with the same setup. I could post it to you in a image that windows or nixs would have no trouble with.
Getting appleshare to work would require adding open transport which would be a waste of space, the cd extension should have you up and running.
The last thing required may be getting stuffit over to the drive?
