It's probably not corrupt....

don't un-.bin it under X. Transfer the .bin file to a Mac running a 
"Classic" MacOS and un-.bin it there.

In any case, even if the .smi executable code is corrupt, Disk Copy 
_should_ be able to mount the image in a "Classic" MacOS. Perhaps 
changing the suffix to .img might do the trick, or even change the file 
type/creator to rohd/ddsk.

Again, don't launch the .smi, instead use Disk Copy to mount the image.

What's the location of the file with which you've been struggling?

Heck, I think you've gotten kinda far afield from your original mission. 
Why not try one of the earlier orinocowireless drivers and see if that 
works before continuing with this 8.6 "madness"?!?

<ftp://ftp.orinocowireless.com/pub/software/IEEE/PC_CARD/APPLE/>
     and
<ftp://ftp.orinocowireless.com/pub/software/ORiNOCO/PC_Card/MacOS/>

There's a bunch of drivers in those directories and I'd suggest trying 
each, from highest version on down until you come to one that works.

hth,
