How I got Panther to work
Posted: Wed May 12, 2004 4:05 am
So, finally success. Here is a list of stuff I had to do to make panther work
1. Partition the virtual HD with Darwin, just like in the guide at PearPC homepage. The first two times I installed OS X, I didn't use darwin, and it resulted in my hd not being bootable. You will have to repartition during the OS X install though.
2. set prom bootmethod to select: prom_bootmethod = "select"
3. I had no problem installing panther with the isos I made in Alcohol 120%
4. After I had installed the OS, I could boot but it would crash once I got to the first screen. What I did was to comment out the network settings, and remove the verbose startup from macargs:
prom_env_machargs = ""
cheers
hope this will help you on your way towards a mac desktop in windows :D
