I think that appiles to 99% of all the code written.
In  the case of image disk, have source code may not be needed,
if it written in modules, the only a device driver need to be linked
into his code. Since I don't have a classic machine I have not paid
much to this thread but a lot can be said for getiing a mini - unix
style OS for the older machines.  dd and tar can be your friends
provided one can get a -tiny-  or -basic- function  of the code.
