Can you provide a bootable disk image?

Mini vMac FAQ
No. This would require Apple System Software, involving issues similar to those mentioned above for ROM images. Except that System Software may be downloaded freely from Apple. Maybe someday. The next computer that I plan to emulate is the Mac II, which has color. (See bounties) Meanwhile, you could try Basilisk II. It might be possible to hack the ROM of the Mac Plus to support larger screen sizes.

How do I resize a disk image?

FrequentlyAskedQuestions - #qemu Wiki
where hdd.img is the raw format image that you want to resize and N is the new size that you want the image to be, in megabytes. To change the units of N, change obs to something else such as 1GB for units in gigabytes (1000x1000x1000). If you want to resize a raw image but you do not want it to become sparse (you actually want those zeros in the file) then do "dd if=/dev/zero of=image seek=S count=N-S obs=1" instead, where N is the new size and S is the old size (in bytes).

It allows you to store all of the data relating to a particular disk to a file and reconstitute the original disk exactly, at a later time.

I have single partitioned hard disk which is not bootable as well, can I recover my files from it?

File Recovery Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ
File recovery becomes instantly more difficult in this case. Most recovery programs will need a place to copy recovered data, and if you are using the same drive which has the lost data on it you have no guarantee that you will not be destroying more data than you save. It's a far better idea to either install a new hard drive onto the current system and put a new OS on that, or find another computer to transfer the lost hard drive to. This Scenario can be very difficult to deal.

How does Floppy Image read a disk?

Towodo Software - Floppy Image FAQ
Floppy Image reads a disk track by track. Since Floppy Image reads a disk in this way it doesn't care about invisible files, filesystems or bootsectors as long as the floppy controller in the floppy drive supports the format of the disk. Amiga floppy disks are not compatible with PC floppy controllers and will therefore never be supported. Consider the image below which shows the surface of a floppy disk (or a harddrive platter for that matter). The disk rotates around its center.

Can I share a disk image between two projects?

emulab.calvin.edu - Frequently Asked Questions
No. At this time you cannot share OS images between projects. We are thinking of adding project collaboration support, but that is a future project. In the meantime, you will need to create an image descriptor in the project that wants to use your image. Fill out the form, but leave out the "Node to Obtain Snapshot from". Then just copy the image over to the default path it picked for you in the form. There is more information available in the Custom OS section of the Emulab Tutorial.
