I was about to disagree about using DiskCopy until I saw your instructions on the other post.

>Disk copy and dd image files -- howto

If you just download the files on your mac and try to use them directly with DiskCopy you get "The Make Floppy operation did not complete. (-54)"
DiskCopy's convert image... command won't even recognize the files.

>Disk copy and dd image files -- howto
thanks for the trick to change how the mac recognizes it.

And for those of you who don't know how to change creator & kind, you need to get Apple's ResEdit, Norton Utilities, Resourcer, or some other specialized utility.
