You can find already initialized disks here:
http://bgilon.free.fr/apple2/Peersoftv1.5.6.zip
Within this archive you'll find already initialized bootable disk images
including one (D34Merlin - 2.48.do) that contains the core files for the
last DOS 3.3 release of Merlin 8 (last Merlin suite of assembler for DOS 3.3
system). Just discard the files you do not have any use of (typically my own
stuff).

In case you would like to get a ProDOS 8 disk image, I would suggest that
you download the disk image, I should come by with a suitable disk image
later in the day, I'll post a message in this thread with a suitable URL if
you're interested.

Beware of using some features from copy program such as Copy II+ as it tends
to transform the format of target disk images (from byte level to nibble
image) under Virtual 2 at least.

HTHATS,
Benoît
