Mac Os 9.2.2 Emulator
I actually just installed MacOS 9.2.1 in qemu PPC literally days ago. I couldn't seem to get 9.2.2 booting though, but I think there's an upgrade I.
What is SheepShaver? 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 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. If you are using a PowerPC-based system, applications will run at native speed (i.e.
With no emulation involved). There is also a built-in PowerPC emulator for non-PowerPC systems. SheepShaver is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL). However, you still need a copy of MacOS and a PowerMac ROM image to use SheepShaver.
If you're planning to run SheepShaver on a PowerMac, you probably already have these two items. Here is an explanation on how to install it on mac os x for example: But this last one is more complicate to install then VB, and it seems to be forget by its developpers.
With Mac’s Boot Camp Assistant, you can install Windows on your Mac system. First things first. Format for windows partition on mac. Once the installation is complete, you can seamlessly shift between macOS and Windows.
If it is possible, i'm sure that a lot of people would be so happy! Thanks for your answers! Posts: 3 Joined: 18. Dec 2008, 12:39. I think you might be a little confused on the difference between a virualizer like VirtualBox and an emulator like SheepShaver. 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. 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.
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. Apparently, 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. 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. Then again, old school Macs aren't quite as common as PCs either. Welcome to the x86 world. 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.
With that aside, I hope you enjoy using VirtualBox for all the wonderful things it is capable of. Volunteer Posts: 167 Joined: 5. My passport for mac 2tb external usb 3.0 portable hard drive review.

MacOS 9.2.2 Location: > > MacOS 9.2.2 MacOS 9.2.2 screen shots Thanks to MacOS 9.0 was released in October 1999 with the final update for it, version 9.2.2, release in December 2001. MacOS 9.2.2 is the last version of MacOS based on the original Macintosh operating system. This is the MacOS 9 desktop.
Over all the user interface is not much different from the MacOS 8.x desktop but there have been many technical improvements and some new features added. (Note, these screen shots also show a useful third party utility called 'Dave' that enables Macs to fully participate in a Windows NT network) The control strip, which was available for earlier versions of MacOS has been improved. You can now simply drag tiles onto the strip to install them, instead of having to put them in 'Control Strip Modules.'
You can now also delete one by holding the Option key, then dragging it out. Mac OS 9 can, optionally, have multiple users. Each user can have a different desktop theme and sound settings. Users can be given limited permissions so as to prevent them from messing up the Mac while still letting them use it.
With multiple users enabled the above login box appears at startup. Microsoft completely ripped off the appearance of this login window in Windows XP. This is the multiple user control panel used to add and modify user settings.
A very funky feature of MacOS 9 is that it can use your voiceprint as a password. You record a phrase and when you log in it does not just check the phrase but also that you are the one saying it. Also on the subject of security, MacOS 9 adds the ability to encrypt files on your hard drive. A screen shot of MacOS 9 browsing the hard drive to show some of its icons. In 9.0 - 9.0.4, most applications would install to the 'Applications' folder. 9.1 changed that, as it shipped at the same time, and along with, Mac OS X 10.0. 'Applications' is now used for OS X applications, and 'Applications (Mac OS 9) for OS 9 apps.
