I've been trying to get an image off of a 400k disk. Everything (programs, etc) works, except the System and Finder files. The emulator (vMac) should be able to start up from the disk I'm copying, but it instead displays an X in a floppy disk. I've tried BinHexing both of those files, and re-converting them in vMac (with and without the TEXT filter option on), and nothing's working. Does anyone know how I can do this?
