Troubleshooting Version 2.5, 24.02.19, 64-bit install

Post by patoperro »

Hi,

I followed the instructions to the letter, but I cannot get Sheepshaver to start (quits immediately) on my 2017 Macbook 10.14.3 (Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640 1536 MB).

Have tested the same setup at home with my HighSierra box and it starts fine.

Is there a link to a page on troubleshooting that I haven't been able to find?

- Which rom file do you use (where did you get it)?
- Did you make sure the rom file is in the same folder with the SheepShaver application and that it is (re)named "Mac OS ROM", without the quotation marks and without a file name extension?
- Did you make sure that the Mac OS ROM file does not have a hidden file name extension? You can check the full name of the file and remove a possible hidden extension in the Finder Info panel for the file.
