This item specifies the file name of the Mac ROM file to be used by Basilisk II. Just dropping it in the same directory is not sufficient.įrom the BASILISK II readme, the rom preference is defined below: The issue is that you need to specify to the emulator where the ROM file is located. I’ve managed to reproduce your error, using a Quadra 650 ROM file from a tutorial on RedundantRobot. Tackling Basilisk II and SheepShaver in turn… Basilisk II

I got the disk image from youtube – Tour of Mac OS 7.5.5 with color + games (with download links). I opened both BasiliskII and SheepShaver and I took a screenshot for you guys to know tell me what’s going on? On forums it said quadra650.rom will work but I tried and nothing special, I got the same error. This is very huge problem and I don’t know how I can fix it. I thought it would work if I use BasiliskII but when I assemble the ROM, SDL.dll and the other stuff, I got an error about the ROM: “Cannot open ROM file.” The same thing happened with SheepShaver. I was thinking I could run Mac OS 7.5.5 on vMac with color but no it won’t work with color only OS can run. The Original question BasiliskII and SheepShaver can’t open quadra650.rom It is also worth noting that SheepShaver only supports PowerMac (PowerPC) emulation, and NOT 68K.You may also wish to see the related link, Linux 68k Macintosh emulator.Note that this will not work for the question (if you didn’t write the question – if you did, then I still not sure if it works), and that you need to have edit rights (i.e. To get at your answer to a question that the author deleted, you need the answerPostID from the URL, not the questionPostID, where the URL to the deleted answer is of the form: Or rather, this is the “saving for posterity” of an extensive answer that I posted to a question on SuperUser, a question which the original poster, rather inconsiderately, subsequently deleted.!

PowerPC CPU emulator by Gwenole BeauchesneĪnybody have the same experience or any hints on how I can boot SheepShaver from the 9.Follow gr33nonline on Social WARNING: No audio device found, audio output will be disabled. WARNING: Cannot open /dev/dsp (No such file or directory) WARNING: Cannot open /dev/mixer (No such file or directory) WARNING: Cannot open /dev/cdrom (No such file or directory) SheepShaver V2.4 by Christian Bauer and Mar”c” Hellwig The following is the console output from $. I’ve also tried fiddling with the bootdrive value in sheepshaver_prefs – also no change in behaviour. I’ve tried the “Troubleshooting” hint in the blog of replacing “disk” with “cdrom” in the line which reads “disk /home/pi/mac9x/9.iso” in the file /home/pi/.sheepshaver_prefs – to no avail.

The response is a grey background with a 3.5 floppy icon with flashing question mark “?” – this suggests to me that the emulator is bootstrapping from the ROM ok, but that I am failing to boot from the CDROM ( i.e 9.iso)

I did the OS 7 install with Mini VMac – great fun! Now I am trying to get OS 9 running with SheepShaver per the instructions in the video, but I’m hitting a snag.Įverything follows the video fine until I try to boot from the 9.iso image.
