Mac OS 7.5.2 in Sheepshaver on Windows 10.

Post by jonirob »

I've managed to install Mac OS 7.5.2 easily, but when I try to boot the installation it freezes at the "Welcome to Macintosh" screen.

Does anyone know a work-around for this problem?

System 7.X is installable from quite some System CDs, alas SheepShaver can´t boot from the installed System for various reasons.
You might try this bootable image to confirm your setup is all right:

As written on the page over at Macintoshgarden, the 4MB OldWorldROM is obligatory to boot.
