@NJRoadfan, It didn't help. But today I managed to solve this problem. Apparently, all my difficulties were related to the fact that I used to assemble Netatalk according to the instructions, and finally decided to switch to using ready-made packages in brew. And apparently he didn't completely...

@JDW, In general, I could not even think that this forum threads discuss only specific SIMM ROMs, not all that can be created. It's amazing for me. :) But I learned a lot of new things, thanx. Someday I will probably tell you about my experiments with the Q950, which I received this year. I...

I finally got a programmer and 8 MB ROM SIMM. First I tried ready-made images for Quadra 950, and now I'm making my own. And here's the question... do I understand correctly that at the moment the custom firmware for Quadra 950 does not support disk compression? :unsure: All my attempts to...

I also faced a problem that I can't solve. Netatalk installed from brew, version 4.2.3. Part of the log, when trying to mount the shared directory on Mac OS 9.2.2 Chooser on Mac OS 9 displays the "Share" directory, but it is "gray" and not available for mounting. I don't see any problems...

Discovered modern software for connecting AFP shared directories -- Apple Share IP Browser. This allows you to connect, for example, from System Software 7.0.1 on Quarda 950 to the general AFP catalog on Netatalk.

I always use QuickBench 2.0 to test disk performance.

@Kay K.M.Mods Thank you for the explanation. I saw the successful launches of Quadra 900 in YouTube and decided to study this topic. I found ROM SIMM here and some explanations, as well as a link to GitHub, where you can get a custom ROM. I became interested, and of course I wanted to try it...

@Kay K.M.Mods, @eric, I'm just getting ready to try it on Quadra 950. In general, I understood everything, but I can't understand why when splitting ROM, the chunks are named in reverse order? 0 chunk of firmware = file 4 1 chunk of firmware = file 3

@eric I always wanted to have OS X 10.0 or 10.1 installed on real hardware, but every time I face problems. To install these OS, you need small disks, preferably no more than 4 GB, because on G3 MT, for example, the installer does not find suitable disks. I have such SCSI disks, but they are...

Managed to fix it! The plastic had metal threaded bushings soldered into it. It seems reliable. I won't take it apart anymore, it seems to me that this plastic starts to crack every time I look at it. :LOL:

@vtgearhead, I didn't know about it. Share your configuration file, I have ready-to-use disk images BlueSCSI SSW 7.0.1, SSW 7.1, SSW 7.1.2, SSW 7.5, SSW 7.5.3, I could check it quickly enough. For me, NFS is more convenient than FTP, so I miss it when I boot these old systems.

This time, unfortunately, there is some problem. After the configuration file "ssheven Preferences" are created, restarting the application causes Mac OS 7.6.1 with OpenTransport 1.3.1 to freeze, which runs on Quadra 950. If you delete the settings file, the launch will be successful. I didn't...

I was able to get another such processor. And... exactly the same problem. If I disable multiprocessor support, OS9 works fine. Very fast. But with the support of two OS9 processors, it freezes. OS X does not start, with the same error.

@phipli Thank you! You helped me a lot. And I finally figured out why BasiliskII didn't work -- I downloaded the file with the BeOS client in the terminal, and forgot to switch to binary mode. The file was downloaded, but was not valid. Now I have both BasiliskII and SheepShaver. Maybe I'll...

This has already been done, apparently that's why the extension is loaded immediately, even before the BeOS download option appears. But again, BeOS does not load with the extension loaded. What version of the extension do you use? This is without a loaded extension. The Mhz of the processor is...

@phipli, I've already tried to run BeOS with this processor and got a "black screen" (Malevich 🤪). I use the MaxPowr extension version 2.0.5, and I see how a rectangular MaxPowr insert appears under the square Mac OS emblem, and only after that the Mac OS/BeOS loader selection appears. If I...

@phipli, I knew that SheepShaver can use a processor without emulation when running on PPC, but I didn't know that ROM is also read automatically. After I removed the ROM in the settings, it worked. The connected disk with SSW 7.5.3 will start, but it's sooo slow. I have NewerTech G4 350...

No, apparently there is some other problem that is not obvious to me. Booting from the CD is not performed. An attempt to boot from a disk image is unsuccessful, Mac OS boot hangs. I tried to wait 10+ minutes, but nothing changes. All this works fine on SheepShaver 2.5 on this macOS 15. Do you...

@ClassicHasClass, @phipli, Wow! Thank you, folks! It's running now, but my disk images that I transferred from the modern SheepShaver to macOS 15 didn't work in BeOS. Mac OS 9.0.4 boots in SheepShaver on BeOS and an extension error pops up. Booting with extensions disabled is also unsuccessful...

Hi, There is a Power Macintosh 9500 running BeOS 5. I want to try running SheepShaver and BasiliskII on this OS. However, I couldn't find the finished packages, only the source texts. But there was a problem with the compilation. I'm not a programmer, so every time I have various problems when...
