Server 1.0, Server 1.1 and Server 1.2.Pele1Q10 will not run in QEMU (PPC).

Server 1.2v3 will run in QEMU (PPC), very slowly with a glitchy mouse.

I know this,but I cannot go past the 2nd reboot.(After installing the base system)

These steps work for me in Windows 10:

qemu-system-ppc -L pc-bios -m 256 -hda ./OSXServer1.2v3.img -cdrom ./OSXServer1.2v3.iso -boot d -prom-env "auto-boot?=true" -M mac99

qemu-system-ppc -L pc-bios -m 256 -hda ./OSXServer1.2v3.img -cdrom ./OSXServer1.2v3.iso -boot d -prom-env "auto-boot?=false" -M g3beige -cpu g3 -prom-env "boot-args=-v"

In open bios type:

boot cd:9,\:tbxi

(Two back slashes, not one)

qemu-system-ppc -L pc-bios -m 256 -hda ./OSXServer1.2v3.img -cdrom ./OSXServer1.2v3.iso -boot c -prom-env "auto-boot?=true" -M g3beige -cpu g3 -prom-env "boot-args=-v"

qemu-system-ppc -L pc-bios -boot c -M g3beige -cpu G3 -m 256 -prom-env "boot-args=-v" -prom-env "auto-boot?=true" -net none -hda OSXServer1.2v3.img -sdl

You're welcome.

Mac OS 8.6 running in Bluebox, in Server 1.2v3, in Qemu.

Missileboi

If anyone can't find the CD,search in Google "Mac OS X Server 1.2v3 iso" and go to the first page you see after the search.(You need to create an account to download the .toast file)

Server 1.2v3 will run in QEMU (PPC), very slowly with a glitchy mouse.

Reasons:
Server 1.0,1.1 and 1.2.Pele1Q10 have a Mac OS 8.6 interface that QEMU doesn't support.
Server 1.2v3 does run on QEMU because it uses a Mac OS 9 interface that QEMU does support.

User interface is the last thing an emulator would be concerned with.

I agree. 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2.Pele1Q10 will not run because QEMU doesn't emulate the required hardware. I tested it by myself.

Missileboi

Is it possible to install Mac OS X Server 1.0,1.1 and 1.2.Pele1Q10 with a Power Mac G3 bios?

jonirob

Mac OS X Server 1.0 now installs in QEMU.

Koshgnintan

Great! But I've noticed that the first icon in your image, has no name. Is this a glitch from QEMU or the System itself?

jonirob

@Koshgnintan

It's just because it's untitled.

Missileboi

For some reason it takes a long time to reboot.

ubuntuxp

@Missileboi are you using QEMU by any chance? Soft reboot there doesn't work for Mac OS 9 or Mac OS X.

xiaolei312

Can't install server 1.0,1.1

Missileboi

@xiaolei312 Are you using QEMU? If you are, you can't, since when you try to boot from the CD, it would normally boot to OS 8. QEMU does not support OS 8.6 (for now).

Missileboi

@ubuntuxp Yes, I am using QEMU, and thanks for the explanation.

helloisthispizzahut

How do I use this on QEMU?

jonirob

@helloisthispizzahut

You'll need Custom BootX from:

https://github.com/steventroughtonsmith/BootX



To install Mac OS X Server 1.0, first create a 2gb vmdk drive with:

qemu-img create -f vmdk osxsrv10.vmdk 2G

You'll need to initialise the disk using Mac OS X Server 1.2v3 iso obtainable from Macintosh Garden, with this command:

qemu-system-ppc -sdl -M mac99,via=pmu-adb -cpu g3 -m 256 -hda osxsrv10.vmdk -cdrom osxsrv12v3_cd.iso -boot d


When you see fatal error, press quit, and shutdown QEMU, start installation with:

qemu-system-ppc -sdl -g 640x480x8 -M g3beige -cpu g3 -drive file=osxsrv10.vmdk,index=0,media=disk -drive file=MacOSXServer10.iso,index=1,media=cdrom -drive file=BootX_custom.dmg,index=2,media=disk,format=raw -prom-env "boot-device=ide2:2,\BootX" -prom-env "boot-file=ide1:11,\mach_kernel" -prom-env "boot-args=-v"

Then run with:

qemu-system-ppc -sdl -g 800x600x32 -M g3beige -cpu g3 -drive file=osxsrv10.vmdk,index=0,media=disk -drive file=MacOSXServer10.iso,index=1,media=cdrom -drive file=BootX_custom.dmg,index=2,media=disk,format=raw -prom-env "boot-device=ide2:2,\BootX" -prom-env "boot-file=ide0:11,\mach_kernel" -prom-env "boot-args=-v"


It's very slow, you'll have to be patient.

helloisthispizzahut

@jonirob Is it possible to boot from server 1.0 cd?

helloisthispizzahut

I tried to boot from cd but it wont work. I tried qemu-system-ppc -hda image.img -cdrom MacOSXServer10.iso, -m 64m -boot order=d

What am I doing wrong?

Missileboi

@helloisthispizzahut No, it's not possible to boot the Mac OS X Server 1.0 image. You need Server 1.2v3.

helloisthispizzahut

Is it possible to install this on SheepShaver?

jonirob

@helloisthispizzahut
No, it will only install in qemu-system-ppc.

helloisthispizzahut

For some reason if I run qemu-system-ppc -sdl -M mac99,via=pmu-adb -cpu g3 -m 256 -hda osxsrv10.vmdk -cdrom osxsrv12v3_cd.iso -boot d, it will not work in QEMU for whatever reason. I have BootX but it still doesn't work as it said that NVRAM is not usable and has an error code of 0x1400

h3jidcuhvhvsuh

Did you get it yet?

helloisthispizzahut

I finally got it running in QEMU after trial and error.
