What I have to submit is some EAD for the Cheuse collection, and 4 zip files which match the id number of <co2> elements in the EAD. The zip files contain images of each disk and pdf files. I can't actually image the disks...I don't have the hardware yet. For the purposes of the tests, what I did was:
- Took pictures of the floppies
- Created a directory structure that matched the structure in the EAD and put the images of each disk in the appropriate folder
- Added a dummy pdf to each folder
- Zipped up each folder and ran it through Rubymatica which:
- unzips
- Creates some technical metadata within a METS.xml file
- Rezips
So the .zip archives included .txt, .xml, .jpg, and .pdf files
