Problem Installing 7.5.3 on New Basilisk II Mac Install
Posted: Thu Apr 13, 2017 3:00 pm
I'm hopeful that someone can help me with this problem.
I'm new to the Basilisk II Mac environment, in fact I started last night.
First off I have a Late 2012 Mac mini, i7, 16Gig RAM running OS Sierra 10.12.4.
Here's my problem: I followed all of the instructions posted on this site (http://www.emaculation.com/doku.php/bas ... _osx_setup) including creating the 'Shared' folder and putting the 19, sys 7.5.3 files in said folder.
When I transfer these files to my 'InstallerParts' volume and then open the volume the files are all listed as 'documents' including 'System_7.5.3_01of19.smi'. I never see the part 1 icon pictured on the instructions and the file is never listed as an 'application program'.
I thought something had happened during the download of the files so I went back and grabbed them again, same result.
I grabbed them from another site that had them all in zip form, unzipped them, installed them and same result.
I know I must be doing something wrong. Probably something 'forehead slapping' simple.
Any help is really appreciated.
