Note from CW: I have had some success using premade hd images from Cat_7 located here (10.2):

and here (10.3)

Try these instead of the 3 gig and 6 gig files on the PearPC site if you get stuck without any bootable partitions
---------
Download PearPC-0.1-win32-jitc from the PearPC SourceForge page, as well as the 3GB Image available.

Next, download Gemulator Explorer from Darek's website.

Extract Gemulator Explorer, and run GEMXPLOR.EXE.

Select the CD/DVD-ROM device that you put the OS X CD into, and select File > Create Image from Physical Disk. (Note: It will appear empty on the right pane, do not worry.)

I saved my CD Images as *.img (ie, macosx_1.img, macosx_2.img).
Now it is time to extract and configure PearPC-0.1.
Extract PearPC and the 3GB image to their own folder somewhere (I used N:\pearpc\). Once that's done, find the file in that folder called "ppccfg.example", and open it with your favorite text editor (I use EditPlus2, but you'll probably use Notepad).
The only things that really need to be configured are the ide0 drives. Here is a copy of my settings for them.
Code: Select all
pci_ide0_master_installed = 1
pci_ide0_master_image = "pearpc-3gib.img"
#pci_ide0_master_type = "hd"
pci_ide0_slave_installed = 1
#pci_ide0_slave_image = "darwin-701.iso"
pci_ide0_slave_image = "macosx.img"
#pci_ide0_slave_image = "/dev/cdrom"
pci_ide0_slave_type = "cdrom"
Save the changes to the configuration file, and exit your text editor.
Next, you will have to open a Command Prompt window, and navigate to the folder where you extracted PearPC to (in my case, C:\pearpc\). Type in the following command to load PearPC with your configuration file.
Code: Select all
ppc ppccfg.example
