Great !
The info about Mac Binary II helped me. I´ve found Mac Binary II on my Mac IIci and used it to create real DART files.
And now I succeded to convert them to DC42 files, write them on a disk and started my Lisa with it.

Now, the next problem happens ...
Using Xenix on my XProFile I´ve to patch the boot disk with FEdit. The only version I´ve found Stuffit reports some warnings and the extracted file doesn´t work on my IIci.
FEdit is shareware. So do you know a goot place to download it ?
