You're absolutely right that this is a bit confusing!
The point of this program is that it makes it easier to select disk images than the GUI does. Everything this program does can be done in the GUI - and of course you need the GUI for setting RAM, video, etc. But once you've set RAM, video, etc. in the GUI, then this program makes it easier to manipulate disk images.
To get started, you need to create a disk image and install the OS on it. See the guide in the wiki on this site for instructions.
This should have been spelled out earlier, so I'm glad you posted the question.

What are you referring to? Which application, when and where?julialy wrote:@Ronald You don't have to put a Carbon Application in a dmg or zip or whatever.
That is or was a bug in MacOSX 10.5 (Leopard) related to (Dutch) localization. I do not see it in Snow Leopard and I do not know if it is still in Leopard with the current version of this script.And no more red button.

I've now recompiled and codesigned this script. It should run smoothly under Catalina.

OK, here is a new script application for selecting and creating disk images for Basilisk II; it also includes an option that opens the prefs file for editing:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/esjai9ih7ca6j ... r.zip?dl=1
It's codesigned, and should run under Catalina, where (I think) the BasiliskIIGUI won't run.
Not heavily tested, so backup the prefs file if you use it.

Thanks. The existing GUI will certainly not run in Catalina.
I edited the first post in this topic to point to your latest post here.
A minor remarks: I find the HD icon confusing.

I added the file to the wiki downloads and changed links to your older EmulatorImageChooser to this new one.
