With that aside, I hope you enjoy using VirtualBox for all the wonderful things it is capable of. Sorry to burst your bubble like that, but VirtualBox is just a virtualizer and unfortunately will most likely never be able to do what you're wanting it to do. Then again, old school Macs aren't quite as common as PCs either.
I'm sure this hybrid nature hasn't helped your understanding of the topic much, but it's not nearly as common to run into a single product that can do both. The benefit is that virtualizers tend to run a lot faster, but the drawback is that they can't be ported to a different architecture like an emulator can.Īpparently, SheepShaver is a bit of a hybrid in the fact that it virtualizes when running on a PowerPC and emulates when running on other architectures. In contrast, a virtualizer is designed to run only on the same type of processor with a compatible language, because virtualizers run as much code as possible directly on the CPU, without much if any translation. Emulators are capable of running on any processor/platform that the emulator's source code is compiled on and it's the job of the emulator to translate every single instruction of the emulated guest CPU language to that of the host's architecture.

I’ve found the issue, I need an older ROM file, specifically Mac OS 9.0.4 or earlier. I am not familiar with SheepShaver, but check if it has any settings which define which Macintosh it's trying to emulate. I think you might be a little confused on the difference between a virualizer like VirtualBox and an emulator like SheepShaver. The MAC your are trying to emulate is not supported by the version of MAC OS you are trying to run. Thanks for your answers ! Crocodil Posts: 3 Joined: 18.

Here is an explanation on how to install it on mac os x for example:īut this last one is more complicate to install then VB, and it seems to be forget by its developpers. If you're planning to run SheepShaver on a PowerMac, you probably already have these two items. However, you still need a copy of MacOS and a PowerMac ROM image to use SheepShaver. SheepShaver is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL). There is also a built-in PowerPC emulator for non-PowerPC systems. If you are using a PowerPC-based system, applications will run at native speed (i.e. This means that both BeOS/Linux and MacOS applications can run at the same time (usually in a window on the BeOS/Linux desktop) and data can be exchanged between them. While Mac OS 9 lacks protected memory and full.SheepShaver is a MacOS run-time environment for BeOS and Linux that allows you to run classic MacOS applications inside the BeOS/Linux multitasking environment.

This is a 9.2.2 drive image that includes updates and graphics drivers released after the offical 9.2.2 installer CD. This is not the installer released by Apple. This unofficial Mac OS 9.2.2 universal boot CD was compiled in 2013 by/for macos9lives. In order to make it work, you need to download a copy appropriate for your hardware and operating system, have handy a copy of the Mac operating system (versions 7.5.2 through 9.0.4 – and not a copy that’s tied.
