That doesn't seem to work for me. There isn't a filesystem that the disk image can use which will be recognized by both the host macOS computer and Mini vMac. Mac OS 8.1 or later is needed to understand the HFS+ filesystem, but Mini vMac doesn't run OS versions past 7.x. Modern macOS hasn't been...

There's always A2osX, which is a recently developed Unix-like OS (layered on top of ProDOS) for the enhanced-ROM //e and the IIgs. It claims to be multi-user and multi-tasking. Navigation would be with `cd` and `ls`, like on a Unix/Linux system, and can be scripted. You say you're inexperienced...

Instead of declaring a variable in the middle of your code and then having to branch over it to the RTS, can't you just put the RTS ahead of it? { lea recentResult,a1 rts recentResult: dc.w 0x4e71 }

Thanks for your deep dive into MAE! I see that you were not willing to install AppleTalk drivers on real hardware, which is understandable. :) I've just recently managed to get MAE running in a virtual instance of Solaris 2.6 under QEMU... and with AppleTalk networking, so it can mount...

You are more optimistic than me. The removal is almost certainly being driven by security concerns over having code in the system which is using old algorithms and auth methods. The easiest path for them is just to remove that code and point to SMB as its replacement, rather than to justify the...

You're right; there's no removal date specified. The support article for Sequoia 15.5 (https://support.apple.com/en-us/121011) has this wording: More confirmation can be found in https://support.apple.com/en-us/102423, which says: Using the phrase "a future version of macOS" doesn't...

Agreed. One nice thing about running a Mac OS 9 VM in QEMU is that you don't have to worry about the host system having an AFP client or AppleTalk support, because the guest system supports both. There's also no need to install a kernel extension. Note: for the Mac OS 9 VM to mount shares over...

I'm aware of at least two AFP client projects: afpfs-ng and afp-perl. Both support AFP over TCP, rather than over AppleTalk (i.e. the same as every macOS release has since Mac OS X Tiger.) Both are command-line tools that will run on macOS as well as BSD and Linux systems. One question is...
