Try this ROM instead: http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Su ... .0.smi.bin
You can use Basilisk II or a real Mac to mount the smi file an use Tomeviewer to extract the ROM from the tome: http://filedudes.siol.net/mac/computil/ ... meview.hqx

config file
SheepShaver uses a config file named .sheepshaver_prefs. It is in your home directory and is hidden.
It also creates an .sheepshaver_nvram file in the same directory to keep the non volatile ram.
By the way: Are you shure your error is not resultant of not specifying the correct path to the rom file under Memory/Misc?

report from autogen.sh
Hello,
When following the build process autogen.sh reports like this:
SDL support ...................... : none
XFree86 DGA support .............. : yes
XFree86 VidMode support .......... : no
Using PowerPC emulator ........... : yes
Enable JIT compiler .............. : yes
Enable video on SEGV signals ..... : yes
ESD sound support ................ : yes
GTK user interface ............... : yes
mon debugger support ............. : no
Bad memory access recovery type .. : siginfo
If you do not have "GTK user interface... :yes" then there is no user interface. But then, whithout proper installation of gtk you wouldn't be able to compile. If you miss gtk you should install the gnome development packages. It is included in there somewhere.
Some other remarks:
-In the config file disable the full screen modes, and select at least two windowed modes like this:
windowmodes 3
screenmodes 0
-For me, the rom file from the 8.5 cd doesn't work. The rom file update 1.0 from the apple site does.
Best,
Cat_7
