Restoring Power Mac 6500 Series SSW 7.6.1 to SheepShaver problem

In SheepShaver, when I use the Macintosh Restore CD for 6500 Series SSW 7.6.1, clicking the Restore All Software from the Launcher, and when I click Next, the error appears when trying to restore the software appears.:

Problems with internal hard disk.

There doesn't seem to be a hard disk to restore to.

The hard disk is mounted on the SheepShaver, why is happened?

do you boot from the CD image? and does the HD have an OS on it?

SheepShaver treats images as floppies. Basillisk II worked the same way. To see this, run Disk First Aid and see how your hard disk files show up.

If the restore program is specifically looking for a hard disk it will fail.
