I think adespoton asked about the guest, not the host ;-) The guest is Mac OS 9.2. This has the best chance of producing acceptable sound. But needs the latest quicktime and itunes installed. However, the sound builds suffer from some performance issues anyway, so if your host is not the fastest, th...

Hi, I gather you do not yet have installed Mac OS 8 and are trying to boot from the real CD. The Quadra 900 rom you are using will not boot the CD to the desktop, please find a Quadra 650 rom which will. If you want, you can later on change the rom. But note the 650 rom seems to work best. That shou...

Hi,

Which OS are you trying to install? And which rom are you using?
Can you copy the contents of your BasiliskII_prefs file in your answer?

I guess you first need to install x86_64 brew to have it create the /usr/local folder etc: arch -x86_64 /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)" Then run: arch -x86_64 brew install qemu But I believe current Qemu can also be compiled...

Hi, I assume you messed around in openbios to install 9.0.0? 9.0.4 will not install unless it finds that 5.2.1 Mac OS Rom version. Perhaps it can go lower, but that is what we found to be working when Qemu just started supporting Mac OS 9. You can find a cube installer with that rom on the garden si...

Hi, It seems the program needs a network connection to find its site license (as its name suggests). There is no config file included. You can enable appletalk in the chooser, but as there is no network location where the config file resides.... The admin program seems to allow to write a config tel...

Hi,

If you change -hda MacOS9.2.1.img into -drive file=MacOS9.2.1.img,format=raw,media=disk the warning will be gone.
To use CD's (real or images) please read our guide:

This works:

qemu-system-ppc.exe ^
-L pc-bios ^
-M mac99 ^
-m 512 ^
-sdl ^
-boot d ^
-drive file=C:\Mac-images\9.0.Cube.iso,format=raw,media=cdrom ^
-drive file=C:\Mac-disks\9.0.img,format=raw,media=disk

Mac OS 9.0 needs some mouse wiggling/clicking to get to the desktop.

Hi, The only reason I can think of for the image not to boot is that is was not sufficiently erased. Did you re-partition to 1 partition and then have the disk utility format it? You can also try to create a new disk image with the qemu-img program. See our guide here: https://www.emaculation.com/do...

Hi, and welcome (is that easy enough )

Can you post the content of your batch file here?
And perhaps let us know how you created the hard disk image, and whether you erased it during install? And where the 10.0 image came from?

Hi,

Understood. This seems OK.

Can you do another pcap file with these devices connected?

Hi, According to the Host's Sys report under Catalina, the USB port on the older MacBook Pro says 'USB 3.0 Bus', and the MIDI interface's Speed is 'Up to 12 Mb/s' and 500mA power. The interface is connected to host without using a hub. This demonstrates my point above: This way to connect makes sure...

Hi, USB A does not say enough about the speed. Can you check your system report for the actual speed the port supports and the speed with which you midi device is connected? For the hub your device is connected to it should say Up to 12 Mb/sec and the same for your device. For devices connected to t...

Hi, Please note you need to run Qemu as root to use the vmnet option. Here are the options for the various vmnet settings: -netdev vmnet-macos,id=str,mode=bridged[,ifname=ifname] -device sungem,netdev=str Configures a macOS-provided vmnet network in physical interface bridge mode The physical interf...

Thanks @adespoton I do have an older USB 1.1 keyboard, and what do you know: it successfully passes through an USB stick in my Linux host! Have to try in macOS host as well. Edit: Yes, got the stick passed through to Mac OS 9.2 in Sierra host as well. It needs unloading the /System/Library/Extension...

The tiger cd 1 download from the macintosh garden boots just fine.

What is the content of your current qemu.sh?

Meanwhile I've heard back from the developer taking care of the USB stack and pass through. It seems there are issues when an USB 1.1 device is connected to an USB 2.0 hub related to the maximum size of packets exchanged between the guest and the host. My test with a Linux guest and an USB memory st...

Missing qemu-img in the allow_qemu_to_run script was fixed.
The issue with drive with bus=0, unit=0 (index=0) exists is related to the command line.
Perhaps you haven't referred to an usb device correctly?

Getting Qemu to run in Linux is not that different from getting it to run in macOS. Except that you probably have the option to install it through your package manager. In Mint, use the synaptic package manager to install: qemu-system-ppc Open a terminal. Create a folder named qemu: mkdir qemu cd qe...

A new version of the vmnet enabled build was posted in the experimental builds post (2nd post in this thread).
It now supports Catalina and Big Sur. Be sure to read the readme.

Depending on what guest OS your software needs, you might look at CockatriceIII. It can read scsi disk images.

Hi,

I have no definitive answer to the question which version of Windows is the minimum requirement for running these latest builds of Basilisk or SheepShaver.
But I would guess these builds require Windows 7 at least.

Best,
Cat_7

Hi,

First, please follow our compiling guide here:
https://www.emaculation.com/doku.php/co ... r_basilisk

If you issue remains, perhaps you can check your package manager for more recent autotools

Hi,

Can you check whether the pa daemon is actually running on your device after installation?

Was the pulseaudio backend recognised when you configured the source code?
Does the sound control panel/output tab in Mac OS show the spatializer audio device?

Hi, Have you been able to install Mac OS 9.2 on the hard disk? From where did you get your bat file?
