Dear tinkerers,
I recently replaced my macintosh plus' 70mb scsi hard drive with a more modern solid state solution. (Bluescsi DB25 1.1-a)
I have added OS 6.0.8 and a compatible version of stuffit. I downloaded a .sit of shufflepuck cafe and was able to succesfully extract the files from the .sit.
Now I am left with these .dsk files and I have no clue how to use them. I guess I need to mount them somewhere like on a floppy or on my bluescsi but I have no idea how I would start that process. Can y'all help me perhaps?

Thanks in advance,
Panabix.
 
You should be able to mount it directly in System 6 using the control panel MountImage, as long as the dsk file is in DiskCopy 4.2 format:

MountImage - Macintosh Garden

MountImage is an INIT/cdev (Control Panel) which can be used to mount Disk Copy 4.2 image files (400K, 800K & 1.4MB) onto a Macintosh Desktop under System Software 2.0.1 (System version 4.1, Finder version 5.5) and later.

My control panel doesn't include it for some reason. I tried installing it but after unstuffing I couldn't do anything with it.
 
Thank you! I succesfully added mountimage to my control panel. I still can't mount cafe shufflepuck for some reason tho. MountImage won't even see what is in the folder evn though they are .dsk files.
