Q: Cannot run sheepshaver in leopard
Hi guys, just wondering if anyone has any experience with Sheepshaver?
I've just recently this year converted to the mac, and feel I've missed out of 20 years of Macintosh pre OS X operating systems. I'm trying to install OS9 with sheepshaver, however under leopard i find sheepshaver to be unresponsive, and just crashes when I open the application.
Does anyone know of sheepshaver having issues with Leopard?
Merry Christmas everyone,
Seb

I never had a retail 8.5 disk, but I inherited a beige G3 with 8.5.0 and the ROM from that (v1.1.2, 1.8 MB) did not work according to my notes (segv error, whatever that is). But my iMac came with 8.5.1 and that ROM was different (v.1.2.1, 3.3 MB). That might be the same as this one.
Anyway, on your CD, try looking inside the CD's "System Folder", or else on the installed 8.5 on your SheepShaver image, see if one was installed in there.
I suppose it's possible that different combinations work differently on different systems, so you might still have to test out various combinations.
