Is there any way to run OS X Server 1.0 (NOT 1.2)?

Post by vlad557776 »

Hello. Recently I found a copy of OS X Server 1.0 on WinWorld. But, while booting, it's saying: "This image is not for this platform" and stops booting, getting me into "no valid state has been set by load or init-program".
Here's my qemu.bat:

Code: Select all

qemu-system-ppc.exe -L pc-bios -boot d -m 512 -M g3beige -cpu g3 -prom-env "boot-device=cd:9,\\:tbxi" -prom-env "boot-args=-v" -prom-env "vga-ndrv?=true" -drive file=osxserver10iso.iso,format=raw,media=cdrom -drive file=osxserver10.vmdk,format=raw,media=disk -sdl -netdev user,id=network01 -device sungem,netdev=network01
Is there any way to bypass this?

OS X Server 1.0 will not install in Qemu, OS X Server 1.2v3 will install.

I tried to install it, but it got stuck at this glitched screen. (https://ibb.co/D1g2DTs)

1.2v3 works. Previous ones do not as QEMU doesn't emulate the hardware required.
