Re: can't mount HFS volumes in Mavericks using Fuse HFS

sshfs appears to work properly. Also, the release notes for OSXFUSE 2.8.2 on the project website mentions fixes for OS X 10.11, implying that it should work without problems. I would really rather not disable SIP at all to use Fuse HFS. I use Mini vMac too, but I need to be able to create/write to ...

He's a developer for OpenBIOS, and was one of the mentors for the GSOC emu OS 9 project this summer :) Alex Graf was the corresponding qemu dev, and Cormac was the student.

Re: can't mount HFS volumes in Mavericks using Fuse HFS

I think you need to temporarily disable SIP while setting up OSXFuse. Once that's done and you re-enable SIP, I think FuseHFS *should* work. I say *should* because I haven't actually tried it; I switched to just using Mini vMac to manage my images years ago, as it's the only place I can read/write M...

You can go into Terminal and run SheepShaver.app/Contents/MacOS/SheepShaver -- I'm getting non-useful error codes when I get this with bad configurations though.

Does it work for you under XP/7/8? Or is this more a case of setting things up differently than in the instructions on the Wiki?

At this point, I'm curious: if you install Mavericks in VirtualBox or another VM, and copy your configuration over, does it start running again?

Re: GSOC qemu Boot Mac OS >= 8.5 on PowerPC system

This reminds me... I've been thinking for a while that it would be neat to take the qemu core in VirtualBox and replace it with a full, modern qemu with all platforms supported. This is as a replacement for KVM on OS X, which doesn't have a virtual machine interface to the kernel (but Sun/Oracle hav...

Re: GSOC qemu Boot Mac OS >= 8.5 on PowerPC system

Interesting... so what's the 5th library loaded after the port scan? Test 2 would appear to indicate that the first library is ASLM related. The changes in Test 3 and 4 appear to keep going until unexpected values are presented to the 5th loaded library if I'm reading that correctly.

Re: GSOC qemu Boot Mac OS >= 8.5 on PowerPC system

Sorry; I think it was me being sleepy. It's polling SerialA and SerialB; it can also poll things on ADB, but only if they've got a pseudo-port entry already. So the main focus is SerialA and SerialB. ADB communications dongles shouldn't be an issue.

Re: GSOC qemu Boot Mac OS >= 8.5 on PowerPC system

Depends on you look at it; in that document, see kOTPortIsPrivate and kOTPortIsAlias -- 'serial' is an alias that generally points to ADB ports A and B. However, I seem to recall OTRunPortScanners is actually scanning the pseudo-ports, which includes AppleTalk virtual ports. By extension, it is prob...

Re: Sheepshaver won't start

Do you have networking enabled? If so, does it work with networking disabled?

10.11 uses a new security model that needs to be temporarily disabled to properly install tun/tap. If you're attempting to use tuntaposx on an upgraded OS, it will fail, as will any software that depends upon it.

Re: Sheepshaver RAM error in Windows

Doesn't Windows have the ability to create sandboxes now? SheepShaver within a sandbox should load from address 0, which would be at the beginning of sandbox memory space instead of system-wide application memory space.

Re: GSOC qemu Boot Mac OS >= 8.5 on PowerPC system

Excellent! It looks like the problem is indeed shortly after OTRunPortScanners, which would line up with the guesses about getting unexpected results from the serial driver. Maybe we can tweak QEMU to just return dummy serial values?

Re: Help with SoftMac

As I said, .smi isn't a filetype; it's a self-extracting application. If you've got a stuffit installer.smi, that means that the resource fork has likely been stripped -- likely from downloading the file to a Windows filesystem, which doesn't recognize resource forks and has only saved the data fork...

First thing: do you have Stuffit Expander?

It's possible you just have the type and creator str...

Re: GSOC qemu Boot Mac OS >= 8.5 on PowerPC system

You can replace OpenTransport with MacTCP up until 8.1 I believe; IIRC, parts of OT are built right into the system for 8.5+, meaning you'd have to replace the resources with ones that MacTCP could hook. System 7.5 - MacOS 8.1 had a switching tool I think, that did a bit more than just swapping out ...
