No, you don't need a ROM file (as in image of a physical ROM).
However, you do need the 'Mac OS ROM' file from a MacOS 9.1 system
(this file reside in the System Foler and is only installed on
newworld machines).

Either install MacOS from within MOL (recommended; the MacOS ROM
file will be installed too) or extract the Mac OS ROM file from
the MacOS installer (using TomeViewer) and put it in the System Folder.
