Tiger Installation Help?

Post by macdude19 »

"qemu-img.exe create -f raw -o size=32G 10.4.img " is the command I use but OS X 10.4 can't format it or read it.

Update:

If I use the format qcow it shows up.

Update:

Hi,

Can you explain a bit more? And provide your command line so we can see what might be wrong there?
A first tip: did you put the entry for the hard disk before the entry for cd in your command line?

Here is the command line:

qemu-system-ppc.exe -L pc-bios -boot c -m 512 -M mac99 -prom-env "auto-boot?=true" -prom-env "boot-args=-v" -prom-env "vga-ndrv?=true" -drive file=10.4.img,format=qcow,media=disk -drive file=Tiger_Disc2.toast,format=raw,media=cdrom -sdl -netdev user,id=network01 -device sungem,netdev=network01



It has the IP but says it can't connect.

So you got it to boot?
Please let us know what you did.

What IP address shows in the network preferences?

Also, for 10.4 it is best to have qemu provide a usb keyboard and mouse to OSX. You can do this by setting -M mac99,via=pmu on your command line.

How old is your qemu build? Where did you get it from?
