![]() Where I have unzipped a 224mb image from my blanks file. Make sure an image is listed in front window. In Graphic/sound I would suggest that you keep the sound 'OFF'Īnd the refresh rate at 30hz. Note that you need to give the path to the ROM (or some puppies may need a link put in executable path like /usr/bin/) You will also need the Performa ROM which is in The XZM module is for the Porteus distribution. Inside the archive you will find a recent version ofīasilisk II (zipped). I've used the 224mb blank image in this screenshot. You must click on 'Add' to find the location. and in my archive.įor Basilisk to know the blank images location If you click 'Create' to create your image, then it is listed in Basilisk's front window automatically after creation.īlank images are available here.

For example if you are creating a 400mb image Warning!! Your hard drive needs to have enough space for theĬreation of an image file. Is recommended ) or you can make your own image from a blank. I’m using Quadra 900 ROM MacROMan/1991-10 - 420DBFF3 - Quadra 700&900 & PB140&170.You will need to buy an Apple OS 8 CD disk ( under $10 )Īn image can be created in the Basilisk front window (about 200megs I downloaded a HD disk image for 7.5.5 here MacOS 7.5.5 (English) (Clean Copy) - Macintosh Repository My config is mostly defaults, I changed screen, extfs, disk, and modelid (for Quadra 900, to match my ROM). ![]() After first boot, I needed to use Monitors Control Panel to change from monochrome to thousands of colors. The installer should see the new image and finish the installation. This gives you a list of mounted drives, identify the CD-ROM, prob ide1-cd0 You need shut it down, change the boot flag to point towards the HDD instead of CD, then “swap” cd images like this: After the first disk completes installing, the guest will try to restart but boot from the CD again. Has a USB tablet pointing device -device usb-tablet (this helps smooth out the mouse pointer capture, making so it doesn’t get caught on the edges of the host window/screen)Īdd this to the list when mounting an image containing software/during installation:įor OS X, I waited hours and hours working off two install CD images.

Neither guest OS has working sound, but there’s some effort on the part of the community to fix this with the qemu-screamer fork but I figured I should try whatever QEMU version was native to arm64 before trying this one that seems to be focused on x86 Windows and Mac. Networking is configured automatically! I was able to browse using frogfind, which strips away elements from sites and loads a text-only version friendly to retro computers/defunct browsers. There’s some info in the emaculation forum about installing a usb-tablet extension, but that didn’t work for me and instead leaves the cursor immobile. Mac OS 9 does not respond well to the Reform trackball, and that makes using it a terrible experience. The guest thinks it’s a 900 MHz PPC G4, but I’ve never used a G4 that felt this slow before! I don’t think there’s a way to allocate more CPU resources, but I could be wrong. In OS X, Activity Monitor shows the virtual processor basically fully utilized, while on the host, I barely get 115% CPU utilization for the QEMU process. I’ve played around with some of the optional commands that I thought would help out but I’m unsure they’re doing anything (see below for my recommended config). Performance is very slow in either OS 9 or OS X.
