Running in Kali Linux
Posted: Thu Sep 21, 2017 7:55 am
Hi, I am trying to get SheepShaver to work on Kali Linux. I have already gotten it built and installed, I have a ROM file and a disk image for the system install already. I can get the program to launch okay by navigating into the folder where the ROM file is located and launching it.
However, according to the instructions the GUI screen where SheepShaver is configured is supposed to appear when it starts up; however all I get is the default Mac screen with the blinking question mark on the floppy disk icon, indicating no system folder is present. I need to get the SheepShaver GUI to appear so I can mount the system disk, but it does not appear on startup and I can't figure out how to make it appear.
If it helps I currently just have both the ROM file and the System install disk image saved in my Downloads folder and that is where I am launching the program from, since the instructions did not specify where to put the ROM file. I don't know if the ROM file needs to be in a specific location or not or if that has anything to do with the problem. I am running SheepShaver as superuser.
Thanks in advance.
