The Mac System 5 files were corrupted and deleted, as per this...

Thanks for pointing those out. They are corrupt.

Specifically they are Apple Diskcopy compressed "NDIF" images, but the Mac resource forks have been lost. There is no known way to recover such files.

I'll mark them for removal.

If anyone has this system version family, can anyone please provide a correct copy of every 5.x version, or at least 5.0 and 5.1?, as both were previously here.

Thank you very much in advance.

I found this listing on eBay - $20US from Washington, USA. I think this is what you are looking for:

Good news, I dug around a bit in my older Mac archives and found a good copy of 5.0 and 5.1. Given the similar names, they probably originated from the same source. They look to be unmodified (no crazy 20xx file dates inside the images or anything).

Sweet! Glad you found them!
Once again, thank you very much for your help.
