David, I can provide you with a set of disk images, but unless
your Ozzie is equipped with the DD mod for the Floppy Disc
Controller or the FDC on the PC that you plan to create media on
has that capability, you will be unable to use them. Most PC FDCs
cannot read/write single density (FM). They would be TeleDisk
images.

Frank McConnell has already provided you with the online source
for docs.
