[Qemu-devel] MacOsX support

[Qemu-devel] MacOsX support

[Jean-Michel POURE]

Dear friends,

I read with great interest that PowerMac emulation was being added in CVS. Did 
anyone already install MacOsX? Are there screenshots available? I only have a 
MacOs 10.2 (unused) license and will try later on...

Cheers,
Jean-Michel

I have tried 10.3. It gives the Apple logo, a small scrollbar and then 
freezes.

Thanks,

I tried Darwin, which worked in pearpc.

In qemu I get:

qemu-system-ppc -g 1024x786 -cdrom ../pearpc/darwin.iso

see in attached screen shot.

Any hints?

I got this when I try to boot Darwin x86 with the Qemu PPC. Darwin ppc
images are usualy name <xxx>.cdr , not iso.
Are you sure it's the same image you used with PearPC ?
But, for now, Darwin will just load and initialize its kernel then
panic.

Yes, this is the 7.0.1 image which includes both the ppc and ix86 version.
Which you can dl here: http://developer.apple.com/darwin/

The list of downloads is also available on:
http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/

After unpacking, you will need to rename darwin-701.iso to darwin-701.cdr
like explained by J. Mayer.

Then boot with:
qemu-system-ppc -hda hd.img -cdrom darwin-701.cdr -m 128 -boot d

On http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/images/release-notes-7.0.1.txt
it is written:

**************************************************************************************
Supported Hardware
==================

Darwin 7.0.1 should install and boot on all PowerPC-based Macintosh
computers supported by Mac OS X 10.3.

Additionally, Darwin 7.0.1 supports many x86-based personal computers:

IDE:
	Only the PIIX4 IDE controllers have been found to work.
	Attached devices must be UDMA/33 compatible or better.
Ethernet:
	Intel 8255x 10/100 ethernet controllers are supported.
   	3Com 905cXXX based ethernet controllers are supported.
Video:
	You must have a VESA 2.0 compliant video card.  Almost all
	modern graphics cards are VESA 2.0 compliant.  However,
        emulators such as vmware do not have VESA 2.0 compliant
        emulated video cards.
Successfully tested hardware:
	All 440BX motherboards tested have worked with their
        internal IDE controllers.  
	IBM ThinkPad A21m (with onboard Intel ethernet)

See <http://www.opendarwin.org/hardware/> for a community-created
site that lists hardware that has been found to work.

I was able to boot Darwin 7.01 in PPC mode only once. Then I tried several 
times without success. Jocelyn wrote me that it may be a problem with the ppc 
BIOS being unable to boot Darwin 7.01.

On the converse, you can try Darwin 6.02 (darwinppc-602.cdr) which boots well 
until it segfaults.
