Sheepshaver will not start up at all (New user)

Post by elivahnajlen »

Hey friends
So I just decided to try out sheepshaver at the recommendation of a friend because I just got a Macbook pro (New, but not the new model, I need my USB ports)
I have the sheepshaver folder with the Rom correctly named inside it, but when I start it up it...well it just doesn't start up. Like at all.
I really have no idea where to begin here, so any help would be really swell
thanks friends!

I suppose that your new MacBook runs macOS 10.12 (Sierra). There is an issue with Sierra that is described, including the workaround, on the SheepShaver download page. Scroll down to the "Compatibility notes". http://www.emaculation.com/forum/viewto ... =20&t=7360
