Apple DOS was on a disk. There wasn’t really any OS, you operated the computer through the BASIC interpreter.

Applesoft was in ROM. The DOS was only for the disk controller. Without a disk drive I could still work the memory map, execute code, calls to locations, speaker calls, graphics control, load off of cassette, etc.
