Re: Tiger for Intel on VMs

What does the " just virtualize x86-based computers" bit mean? It does NOT work under QEMU TCG, which means it won't emulate correctly on Apple Silicon, just virtualize x86-based computers. When you run QEMU, you have the option to use the TCG emulator, or use the host CPU, GPU and memory...

Re: Shoebill - a Macintosh II + A/UX emulator for OS X

Do you still have a copy of your Shoebill work up somewhere? Possibly on an old machine or a backup. I'm traveling until Sunday night and the laptop I have here doesn't have it. Let me know next week if you still want it. Will do; turns out that the error is 0.7-specific -- I've got 1.1.1 and up wo...

Re: Shoebill - a Macintosh II + A/UX emulator for OS X

Do you still have a copy of your Shoebill work up somewhere? I'm trying to get a self-contained A/UX 0.7 off the ground, and as you can guess, I'm running into all sorts of headaches with the macOS version of Shoebill. Command line arguments still don't work, and I can't seem to even add paths that ...

Re: Updating index

Re: A/UX AppleTalk information

I'm soon planning to create some CHDs for MAME that boot A/UX 1.x and 2.x -- I found a useful little checklist on a Tech Info CD from 1992 that should help.

Don't forget about A/UX 2.0.1 for a fully patched 2.x, and A/UX 3.1 + Tune-Up 2.0 for the 3.x series!

Possible, yes -- but someone's going to have to code that up, and Paul's been taking a break from Mini vMac for a few years. I presume what you're asking for is a f...

Re: QEMU command in Win v.s. macOS host

Have you tried building a new guest image from scratch? I seem to recall some architectural changes somewhere along the way that required I set up a new image from scratch. This means your QEMU 8.0 image may not be compatible with QEMU 5.2 due to architectural and EFI changes in the intervening years.
