Hello,

This is normal when Mac can't find your cd or hd to boot form.

Where is you cd rom or cd rom image located? Can you post your sheepshaver_prefs file here?

Best wishes,
Cat_7

CD rom in the prefs refers to an actual CD rom drive. I don't think you can boot from images. .img files made on Macs are pretty flakey on PCs as well. Try the original CD if you have it
