I found several guides when trying to install the recent Mac OS betas we got, and it took me less than half a minute to find them.
#Mac os 8 emulator how to
And if you're a "pro in emulating Windows" then you clearly have the basic skills doing a quick google on finding the best Mac OS emulator and how to use them. If you can post on this forum then you can also Google. Members, try to spend more than 2 microseconds doing basic research before asking generic questions.
We're also not an emulation site, plenty of those out there that covers MacOS emulation in heavy detail, these also have thorough guides in how to use the emulators. If it had been a specific question about a specific version etc that is problematic it had been fine, but this was too generic. We strongly encourage our members to do some research of their own, and this question was by far too generic and lazy. It was most likely moved because the information requested can be found in any search engine in about 2 seconds flat.

Due to Apple's licensing agreements, all three major publishers of VM software (VirtualBox, VMWare and Parallels) check the host platform and will refuse to allow Mac OS X to install if you don't meet the license terms (Mac hardware, and a server version of the OS for version 10.6 or older.) For newer versions (including all of those compatible with PowerPC Macs), you can download updaters from Apple but you will need to get the original installer from another source.Ī virtual machine environment like VirtualBox can run modern versions of Mac OS X in a VM, but only on Mac hardware. These will run on 68000-based Macs (and emulators.) I think 7.5.3 will run on a 68030-based Mac as well. You can download image files for System 6.0.8, 7.0 and 7.5.3, and the updater to bring 7.5.3 up to version 7.5.5. You can get some old copies of Mac OS from Apple's Older Software download page. Classic Mac OS will usually install in an emulation environment, but Mac OS X usually won't install without a lot of hacking. You should be aware also that Apple doesn't license Mac OS for use on non-Mac hardware. You can perform searches to find people making them available, but since they are protected by copyright, it is only legal if you own the hardware in question (which, of course, undermines many of the reasons for emulation.) There are some emulators, however, which don't require a ROM image. Note that many of them require an image of the ROMs from the model Mac you're trying to emulate. You will find links to many different Mac emulators for a variety of platforms. The right choice will depend on what kind of hardware you need to emulate, whether or not you have a Mac ROM image available, and what version of Mac OS you want to run.Ī good place to start your search is E-Maculation.
