Mac OS 7.6.1: Power Macintosh 5400, 5500 and 6500 Series CD

I just received my Power Macintosh 5400, 5500 and 6500 Series CD that installs Mac OS 7.6.1. On the front of my CD, the following numbers appear:

SSW Version 7.6.1 CD Version 1.0
691-1559-A

I have Power Macintosh 5400 and 6400 series computers and I want to make a Disk Tools diskette to startup these computers. I have made a Disk Tools disk with Disk Copy using the disk image located in the following folder on the CD:

Mac OS 7.6.1: Disk Images: Disk Tools.image

The Disk Tools diskette that I have made does not boot my computer. Is this Disk Image damaged or not made for my computer?
No. The disk image is not damaged. This CD was designed for Education Power Macintosh 5400, 6400, 5500 and 6500 series computers. Although the CD should boot all of these computers without problems, the Disk Tools image on the CD will only boot a Power Macintosh 5500 or 6500 series computer.

If you need a Disk Tools image that will boot your Power Macintosh 5400 or 6400 series computer, you can download the image from all Apple Software Updates locations.
