- You don't need DiskCopy to read the info on disk images - for 1.44 (HD)
- floppy images, unstuff it, then copy to a dos (or ext2, hpfs....) partition
- and strip off the first 84 bytes of the file. Then put the file in your
- Executor directory (or ExecutorVolume...) with the .hfv extension.
- When you start Executor, it will see the disk as a valid drive.

- that and get back to you.

- Just remember that you *cannot* drop any version of the System onto
- Executor (yet), and the last time i checked, Finder didn't work.
