That would be 1.0 :)
(at least if it was an early 128k).
I don't remember; *could* 1.0 handle 512k?
Certainly not if you upgraded the roms (which you definitely did if it
has 800k drives).
I've run System 1.0 (or .97 or 1.1, or whatever it calls itself) on Macs
up to and including a Classic. I'm sure it'd run fine on a 512k, and I
have a 128k with Mac Plus roms that runs it fine. It's actually more
versatile than you'd think, it recognized my Classic's HD fine (though
saw it as a huge floppy) and naturally couldn't do much with anything on
it as it had 7.5.5 on it at the time.
As to the OP's question, this will be tricky without another vintage Mac
with some way of getting files to it. You'll need to find a disk image
on the web, get it to the intermediate Mac, and then write it to a DD
floppy using Disk Copy. Getting a DD floppy might be a little trickier
but they're available.
