What is Mac OS 0.x (1.0 pre-release)?

Those are single sided (400KB) disk images of Mac OS 1.0 pre-release, which cannot be mounted on anything else than an early B&W Macintosh or Mini vMac (it will NOT mount on a PPC or Intel system at all).

- 128k-guided-tour.img : This is the very first Macintosh 128K guided tour floppy disk from January 1984 (bootable in Mini vMac)

- System 0.97, Finder 1.0.img : This is Mac OS 0.97 pre-release from January 1984 (bootable in Mini vMac)

- System 0.85.img : This is Mac OS 0.85 pre-release from January 1984 (this crashes Mini vMac at the time of this writing)

Compatibility notes

Single sided (400KB) disk images, only to be mounted using Mini vMac or an early 80's B&W Macintosh.

Emulating this? It could probably run under: Mini vMac
