A solution has already been posted (adding the .out extention), but I was
wondering if the problem above was trying to access the Superdrive with an
application running in Classic.
My (perhaps mistaken) impression was you'd need to actually boot up in OS 9
(not X/Classic) in order to run a pre-OS X app. and have it interface with any
sort of drive (other than the HD) or peripheral hardware. (Note the Pwrbook
running OS 9 worked fine.)
Might that be the problem? (If the .out extension works, I guess not . .

2) Does SMac allow creating an image?
Yes. You can use <Roland_2_SAM>
There are some restrictions....
I just tried it on my G5 under Classic, and it won't work with my
Imation Superdrive. (My link to the past)
I have all the necessary extensions - could be a problem with OSX and
720k disks.
So, I tried on my Powerbook running OS9.1 and it works just fine (as
always).
If so, make one, and then put that image file
(give it a .img, .nrg,
.iso, .dmg, or .toast extension) in a folder called Images in the
Native Instruments folder in Application Support in Library. Kontakt
2 may see it then.
I tried this (I only the the demo of Kontakt 2) and can't load.
Import does not work on the demo.
I wrote the conversion routines in Kontakt 2 and
deliberately
included support for all types of Roland S-50/550/7x formats,
including floppy images. If you find ones that don't work or exhibit
problems, let me know.
I'll e-mail you a file privately...
