Can't make 7.5.3 System Disks on Mac OS X 10.7.3
Hello everyone,
I'm trying to restore a Macintosh Powerbook 190cs with System 7.5.3. I have a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.7.3. I downloaded all 19 files (the first file is a .smi while the rest are a .part file extension)to a separate folder and discovered that 10.7.3 can't read .smi files. I get the error "legacy image should be converted" if it's a .smi file or "file not recognized" if it's a .part file..
I tried to copy the files to brand new floppy HD disks but they don't fit on them...
I've also tried the following website to get some help:

No help because I need to extract the .dmg file from the .smi or .part file.
Is this merely impossible? Am I missing a step? I can't obtain an older Mac and was wondering if I can accomplish making the systems disks on my MacBook Pro with 10.7.3
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Mac OS X (10.7.5)
