Trying to boot AUX 3.0.1 on qemu-system-m68k on X86_64 Linux Mint Wilma

Post by Wozinator »

Hello, I have built QEMU and can successfully run Mac OS 9, but now I'm trying to boot up from an AUX 3.0.1 toast image. I spent the last few hours researching the various options, and I thought this command would be the best for me:

Code: Select all

qemu-system-m68k -cpu m68040 -M q800 -m 256 -bios Q800.ROM -blockdev driver=file,node-name=disk_file,filename=/path/aux3.img -drive format=raw,media=cdrom,file=/path/AUX3.0.1Install.iso -usb -boot d
Because I saw this somewhere, I also tried adding the option:

Code: Select all

-drive file=pram-aux.img,format=raw,if=mtd
However, I only get the flashing ? folder. I'm guessing it can't read the installation image, but I'm not sure what else to try. I made a copy of the install image and changed the extension from .toast to .iso, but that didn't make a diference.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi,

Please see our guide here: https://www.emaculation.com/doku.php/m6 ... s_in_macos
most of it applies to linux hosts.

Best,

I saw that, but didn't think it was similar enough of a system, but I'll check it out. Thanks
