so i got SheepShaver up and running beautifully last night finally.
but my only 8.5 install cd is the one that came with my now defunct iMac.
of course when i go to install it says unsupported after it boots from the install CD.
does anyone know a way i can fool the CD into installing from my restore CD?
any ideas on installation

I don't think it's possible. You might be able to try the "Wish I Were" control panel\extension package. Please let us know if it works.

hmmm
the wish i were extension might work if i can figure out the right Gestalt ID for an iMac...
other option would be to copy the disk but ResEdit the list of supported Gestalts in the installer package...
gonna try both tonight..
let you know how it goes
