I cannot do it from within Fusion, only with the help of one of the other emulators ?

When I was playing around with Fusion PC, I had old Pentium PCs with PCI and ISA slots.
My host OS was Windows 98SE mainly and there was a SCSI HBA configured in W98.
That way I could read/write files of my Mac SCSI drives.
Also the W98 box had a floppy drive (of course) and Mac HFS HD floppies did work fine to transfer files.
I was thinking of a null-modem too, but never got around to set it up.

Mac disk images may be exchanged with Basilisk II, as long as you don´t boot Basilisk II from them.
If you already have Basilisk II Build 142, you may also stick with it, as floppy / SCSI support are available there too - plus the shared folder "My Computer" to exchange files with the host OS.

Which apps are you after mainly?
I think I could upload another disk image at Macintoshgarden with some needful things.
