Installing OS 9.2.2 on SheepShaver for Windows

templest · Post by **templest** » Sun Dec 19, 2004 3:29 am

Er, I made an ISO of the OS 9 CD and for some reason it won't recognize it. It'll right away send me to that little flashng disk wth a question mark in the middle.

No Idea what I'm doing now. Here's my config:

Code: Select all

extfs 
disk macos.hfv
cdrom mac.iso
rom Mac OS ROM
windowmodes 7
screenmodes 63
seriala COM1
serialb COM2
bootdrive 0
bootdriver 0
ramsize 67108864
frameskip 0
gfxaccel true
nocdrom false
nonet false
nosound false
nogui false
noclipconversion false
ignoresegv true
jit true
jit68k false
keyboardtype 5
keycodes false
mousewheelmode 1
mousewheellines 3
ignoresegv true
idlewait false
keycodes true
mousewheelmode 1
mousewheellines 3
enableextfs true
debugextfs false
extdrives CDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
pollmedia true

Ideas?

sheepshaver actually boots OS 8.5 effortlessly, so i think we should be saying 8.5 to 9.04..

I thought it could boot 7.5 through 9.0.4...

Maybe that's why my 8.1 and 7.5 dsks from BII won't boot.

On windows, since old world ROMs are not supported.

You should try linux, since old world ROMs work there.
