I found a working Apple M0001 at my University ... but I need a startup diskette. Where do I get one??? Can somebody help me???

I know that ftp.apple.com quite often have older OSes to download for free. Not sure if they go as far back as System 1.0 though!

(Can't check for you either, as I'm at work behind a firewall so can't use FTP!)

I've got a disk image of system 1 somewhere. I got it for use with the vMac mac plsu emulator. You can probably find system 1 by looking for things associated with that emulator. You'd have to make a disk from it though, an 800k disk at that.
 
Well I have stock pielded on 400k and 800k Disks since, I knew I would need them some day... Now its hard to find a 400k Disk for the 128k, But if it does not work (FTP) let me know as I can poabrly send you a disk with 1.1G...

What is an M0001?

M-- numbers are Mac family numbers, and M0001 is the very first Mac... You can usually find this number on the identification label on your Mac (usually on the bottom).

I was amazed someone did not know that, but on this you need to be a big Mac fan or collector🙂...

OoF, I didn't know what it was either. I knew that it was an early Mac, but I didn't know which one 🙁

I think it has to be a 400k disk but I cant remember.
