If Paradise Lost had been written by a system administrator, it would
have had the sequel 'Paradise Restored from Backup'.

Actually, not.

I already had a bootable disk image lying around from when I was playing
with Basilisk on my home system.

So the sum total of the required work was:

Put the disk and the ROM in a directory.  Unpack the Basilisk sources.
From the top level, cd src/Unix; configure; make

Then tweak .basilisk_ii_prefs to reflect the location of the disk and
ROM, and run

./BasiliskII

Took about 10 minutes exclusive of file transfers.

Umm...   Am I understanding that correctly?
MacOS on a pseudo-Mac hosted by Linux/390?

 Put the disk and the ROM in a directory.  Unpack the Basilisk sources.
 From the top level, cd src/Unix; configure; make

 Then tweak .basilisk_ii_prefs to reflect the location
 of the disk and ROM, and run

 ./BasiliskII

But of course!
(Would that all apps were so easy!)
