A SCSI Hard Drive in Virtual ][ loaded with Word Processors and Spreadsheet apps. It’s also nice on the BOOTi Card USB.
Here is the link to the update image. It has IIWrite and Bank Street Writer Plus installed.

This is a 2mg image I created in Virtual ][. It boots to Super Selector v3.22 which is a text based Program Selector. It works with a mouse or keyboard. I’ve also installed System Utilities v3.1, MouseWrite v2.6.8 and MouseCalc. I’ve already set the default startup subdirectories for MouseWrite, including Accessory and Speller (which you get to via Accessory). My updated version has AppleWorks 2,3,4 and 5, BeagleWrite and MultiScribe, plus copyllplus9 and PublishIT4. There are separate blog entries for all for more details. On March 24, 2020 I added IIWrite and Bank Street Writer Plus [Writer]

Note: for MouseWrite2.6.8 you need to use the hot-key 🍅-D to start it. For some reason Super Selector directory navigation doesn’t see the mw.system app file. Only instance of this I see.
I have Super Selector on an actual scsi drive connected to my real lle.
The original 32 MB image supplied by the group.Per Facebook Apple ll Enthusiasts forum. I have a question. Virtual II on my Macbook Pro has trouble with a 32Mb .po disk image (unrecognized format, it says). I imagine I will be able to use it with the Apple II emulator on Win, but I wanted to ask if anyone knows how to make Virtual II open such files. After all, I bought this software… Thanks!!!
Courtesy of Mark Pilgrim who illustrated how to do this. You need to convert it to a .2mg image with CiderPress, then go to Virtual II configuration and set up a SCSI II Card with an OmniDisk. Then you can “Insert OmniDisk Image…” (under Media menu) to mount the .2mg image.
