Re: Real G5, Classic OS 9.2 install OpenGL files.

I think that problem is exactly opposite, Classic OS setup expect that booting disc is writable (that it is hdd).. not read only as BootCD.. so when you try to boot from cd, where is read only its not working. It seems that something like boot from cd for MacOS 9.1 for its installation is not suppor...

Re: Real G5, Classic OS 9.2 install OpenGL files.

Well, good idea i will try to force Classic OS use CD as booting volume, but i a bit suspect, that problem would in target volume that it will not see target disk.. and maybe it will try to install it on cd, but we will see. In theory i can also try to remove Classic OS from Linux which im have inst...

Re: Real G5, Classic OS 9.2 install OpenGL files.

Classic MacOS has some special rules.. Multiple version can run from same partition even with modern OS - Mac 10.4.11. There is just few systems folders with different names.

Thanks. Otherwise i read post of others problem shouldnt be my machine setting.. but everybody is using 9.2.2, its not working even on G3/G4.. not only G5. So it would have to make sense to test it on 9.1 or 9.0, but i dunno how to do it. On my G5 its possible to install multiple Classic OS, i can s...

Re: Qemu package and guide for Windows available

Patch should fix both dsound message error and broken sound.. but if you have half broken sound with screamer its normal.

These files are some simple patch, you have to download source, add text from diff files into it and build it, its not easy.
