yeah, Mac OS uses Zip64 to compress large files, it's incompatible with regular zip

That would be quite messy; Shoebill is written from the ground up and not based on Basilisk II.

I can't download neozeed's Windows build, because I have no account for "vpsland.superglobalmegacorp.com" I had download the shoebill-0.0.5 and compiled it on Debian Jessie(with some warning): /tmp/ccgrVNDc.ltrans2.ltrans.o: In function `_init_pram': /home/uternet/shoebill-0.0.5/shoebill-...

Try another ISO... You need to use the installer to install to another disk

Try brew install automake after that, I think that should be everything you need to install. Most people using qemu are on Linux, so stuff is much easier for them. OK, that helped a little. This is what I'm getting now: autoreconf: running: /usr/local/Cellar/autoconf/2.69/bin/autoconf configure.ac:...

You need to install aclocal. Yes, I probably do. My extrasensory perception should have told me that! After all, Cormac et al. failed miserably to warn me, but, as I say, my ESP should have told me! Now, how do I install aclocal. By the way, are there any other marvellous gems I might be missing? T...

You need to run it from ~/os9-test/qemu Wonderful! Many thanks! That did work. I've followed with Cormac's first instruction after the decisive missing link you've just provided and that seems to have been successful as well. Oddly enough, make && make install (run from qemu-build) doesn't ...

git submodule init git submodule update that should do it OK. Run from ~/os9-test/qemu-build: git submodule init produces this output: fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git I must be missing some folders in my execution path or that command should be entered elsewhere...

autotools is a confusing !!!!! !! !!!! Follow cormac's instructions to the word, don't mess up the commands! Fine. I've followed Cormac's instructions to the word up to ../qemu/configure --target-list=ppc-softmmu --prefix=$HOME/os9/qemu-install Entering this (after homebrew, etc.), produces this ou...

you didn't change directory to the qemu folder. Which qemu folder? Let's see. I'm trying to build qemu, so chances are there is no functional "qemu folder". Within Cormac's "os9-test" folder there's a qemu-install folder and then there's a qemu-build. None of them serve any purp...

Use homebrew to install it, it will install all the pieces in the right places so pkg config can find them. How, exactly? As I've said, I've already used homebrew (following http://mikelev.in/2012/10/qemu-mac-os-x-success/). The precise SUCCESSFUL commands I've entered are: brew install pkg-config ...

install pkg-config Thanks, but no dice. Executing that from os9-test just produces this output: install: install: No such file or directory While I was waiting for someone's response, I've installed a lot of things, such as homebrew, which finally let me generate pkg-config via this command: brew i...

Following O'Brien's guide in http://c-obrien.org/qemu-os9/testing/, I've reached the following error: ERROR: pkg-config binary 'pkg-config' not found It appears about five seconds after entering ../qemu/configure --target-list=ppc-softmmu --prefix=$HOME/os9/qemu-install I haven't used brew or anyth...

Any more updates on this? Any more weekly reports? Anything?

I searched on the mailing list archive, seems there is no more reports.

Quick question on the ongoing Mac OS 9.X work: there's no need to use ROM files, I assume? And out of curiosity: I never really read about how it works, but I assume QEMU uses OpenBios and whenever necessary OS9 uses the New World ROM file saved on disk. Is this correct? How did the real machines w...

In one of my branches, I was attempting to convert the autoconfusingtools to cmake. I stopped that for a while because I didn't know about configure_file. There's still the problem of the memory management that SheepShaver uses. It still doesn't work on newer compilers, and I still haven't figured o...

It would be better to work in QEMU, because SheepShaver uses a ton of HLE hacks.

Yes... there is that SCSI adapter.... but there is a SCSI to USB 2.0 adapter too... very expensive.. of course ($200). With my new MacPro i no need my Old Mac machines... neither PCs. All my old machines (PowerPc: 8600, 9600, G4, G4 Dual and my old PCs: Victor, Compaq, IBM, some Hybrid and Qbic PC)...

Well... then.... when.. do you believe that could be possible work (64 bits) with yosemite and SheepShaver Classic 9.2.2 ? I was working several years (1997-2002) with my old PowerPC 9600/G4 and classic 9.2.2. I have many files and docs in classic apps like Freehand (does not exist now), Quark 4.0,...

Wow... If we could run MacOS 9.2.2 with SheepShaver would be awesome... Now only can run 9.0.4 version and this version is very limited for many apps, less icons, etc. Would be pleasant/genial if we could run 9.2.2 with Yosemite (10.10.3). So we could open we old files, docs, images .... and games....

could you post your current progress on the source code?

The built in m68k emulator in the Mac OS ROM doesn't support floating point instructions, so go use BasiliskII.
