Recently I stumbeled onto a program for DOS with which I made a sucessful bootable copy of my Emax II 2.14 os disk. I'm sending you a copy of the shareware and the disk image of my Emax II 2.14 os to see if it will work on the your end. There is instructions included with the software. You will have to work in a DOS window. Unzip the file to a directory of your choice. I used the root directory. The command line syntax for copying the image file to floppy will be as follows: 
COPYQM A: PLAYBACK=C:zd777 BIOS

Watch the spacing
zd777 is my image of the zd777 EMAX disk with the Emax II 2.14 OS on it
BIOS is a command to the program.

To make the disk image I used the following command line from the DOS prompt:

COPYQM A: RECORD=C:zd777 BIOS
Again watch your spacing .
Both processes take quite a while to do but the results were well worth it to me.

You will find a copy of the software in the files section of this group. You'll have to unzip the file then you will have to unzip Copyqm.zip.

Lets see what happens!
Best of luck,
Skip

  Thanks! I'll figure out the contrast thing and give it another go on
  my EMAX I. Sorry, I wasn't clear perhaps, but I need an EMAX II OS
  disk to boot up a machine. As far as I can discover, that's not
  available via download and writing to a disk w/EMX. So can someone help?
  Thanks again,
  Mark
