Basilisk likes to crash when you quit DiscPassage application, but works fine otherwise.
To get the CD-ROM recognized by DiscPassage, you may need to write-protect it, either in your host operating system or within the emulated Mac OS system.

This is, what I planned, though.

Having trouble with this and the Shakespeare on Disc image.
The mac partition is not mounting. Tried it under both 9.2.2 and OSX using toast and disk copy/disk utility. Only the PC partition is mounting.
Could someone who actually has the mac version of DiscPassage just make it available as a separate upload?
Thanks.
Works fine with System 6 up to 9.2, including Classic Environment, but
Mini vMac may require a separate CD driver software installed, if you plan to mount .cdr images like this one within System 6 or 7.
Mac OS 7.5, installed within Mini vMac, mounts CD-ROMs fine w/o the need of separate CD driver software.
