There is no ROM there. I think you're confused a bit. That file is an
MacOS volume image that I built. It contains MacOS 7.5.5 all patched and
nice, as well as some other utils I threw on there (NCU at least, I
think). The ROM file that you need is an image of code contained on a ROM
chip on the motherboard of a Mac.

Still confused? Read this:
