Try having HFV make a 720KB Mac-formatted floppy. That's why Macs had 800KB floppies and PCs had 720KB floppies. PowerPC CPU emulator by Gwenole BeauchesneĪnybody have the same experience or any hints on how I can boot SheepShaver from the 9. Not just the formatting, but Mac floppy drives could spin faster or slower to fit more data onto a disk. WARNING: No audio device found, audio output will be disabled. WARNING: Cannot open /dev/dsp (No such file or directory) WARNING: Cannot open /dev/mixer (No such file or directory) WARNING: Cannot open /dev/cdrom (No such file or directory) SheepShaver V2.4 by Christian Bauer and Mar”c” Hellwig Basilisk II can also handle some types of Mac disk image files directly. The following is the console output from $. Basilisk II is an Open Source 68k Macintosh emulator. I’ve also tried fiddling with the bootdrive value in sheepshaver_prefs – also no change in behaviour. I’ve tried the “Troubleshooting” hint in the blog of replacing “disk” with “cdrom” in the line which reads “disk /home/pi/mac9x/9.iso” in the file /home/pi/.sheepshaver_prefs – to no avail. The response is a grey background with a 3.5 floppy icon with flashing question mark “?” – this suggests to me that the emulator is bootstrapping from the ROM ok, but that I am failing to boot from the CDROM ( i.e 9.iso) I don't know how MacOS decides whether or not to give a CD drive an eject command on shutdown.I did the OS 7 install with Mini VMac – great fun! Now I am trying to get OS 9 running with SheepShaver per the instructions in the video, but I’m hitting a snag.Įverything follows the video fine until I try to boot from the 9.iso image. =)Īnyone know how to fix my problem? Help would be nice. HW: Mac Quadra 900 (but using Performa 630 ROM - 1mb)Įjecting problem: In fact, I'm having the opposite problem: Every time I shut down MacOS and there's a cd in the drive, it opens the tray. In fact I upgraded to 2.4.0-test12 solely because I was having problems with mounting drives through 2.2.17's ide-scsi. I'm also using ide-scsi for my cd writer. Linux kernel: 2.4.0-test12 - remarkably stable, given its test status I'm not having the problem that you are, despite my similar setup. ![]() When I open it, all I get is a blinking folder with a question mark. Failing that, it could be that your ide-scsi version isn't processing eject requests properly - try upgrading your kernel -, that your drive doesn't like what it's getting, or that the emulated Mac isn't sending them for some reason I can't diagnose - since I'm using the same OS version and (emulated) hardware version you are, I don't see how that could be. Ive run into an issue with the Mac emulator/Basilisk II. My best guess would be that something else is causing your drive to lock (say, a linux mount on the drive, or some other user-space program). It also needs to have access to a piece of hardware called the ROM, which contains machine-specific. Is this something on the TO DO list for Basilisk? The Mac OS doesnt rely only on the processor to run. I've found problems displaying icons and setting appropriate creator/type for files. gdi into DATA folder Extract sort file from. To use the CD you go to the Unix icon in the Mac desktop and go to the mounted CD. Usage: insert your disc into CD-ROM, and launch this software, select the DVD Drive. Then, insert the CD and mount it from the command line. To use the CD you have to start Basilisk without a CD in the drive and setting the Unix root for Basilisk to some directory that has access to the CD mounting point. I have found another alternative to this, but I find it not to be the elegant (Macintosh) way to do it. The CD disappears momentarily, but then is remounted, and i cannot eject the disk from the drive at any time (pushing the eject button that is located at the front). with many, many files between two mac volumes). There is no one-to-one relation between the ROM file that is used and the Model ID and/or processor settings chosen in BasiliskIIGUI. Dragging the CD icon to the trash does not work.

However I find frustrating to reboot my virtual Mac just to change a CD.
