I need to run Pagemaker 4.2 on my Macbook Pro running OSX10.6.4 with 2GB RAM.

I've got SheepShaver (OS9 emulation) running from an OS9 disc image. So far so good.

Problem: the PM4.2 installation files are on 6 floppies, and Sheepshaver does not recognise floppies.

I tried copying all the files onto a CD, but when I run the install utility from the CD I get so far and then the message "please insert disc 1". Of course at that point I'm stuck. PM4.2 is split into 2 parts on the install CDs.

Is there any way to get install files from the floppies to a CD in such a way that they will run properly without asking for floppy discs to be inserted?

Thanks for your help with this, anyone. :)
