Now you should be able to run startmol -osx (just startmol for Mac OS 9), and Mac OS X will boot up in a window or on a new virtual terminal. Sudo dpkg-statoverride -update -add root root 4755 /usr/lib/mol/bin/mol The following command makes sure you can run Mac-on-Linux as a normal user. If you get a random mess, blank screen or some other problem then press 'n'īy default, Mac-on-Linux requires root privileges to run. The red screen comes out as a stripes, but it seems to work anyway. You basically type 'y' to try out a configuration, and then 'y' if you can see a nice gradient on the screen. Then it is worth setting up the video modes, run sudo molvconfig (It may also crash if you give too much RAM I had to keep a ram_size of 48 in my molrc.macos.) Its possible to give mol more RAM than you physically have, and linux will deal with putting stuff into swap, but you are likely to end up with a slow system. In /etc/mol/molrc.osx (molrc.macos for Mac OS 9) find ram_size: 96 (or ram_size: 48 in molrc.macos) and change to at least 128 The default is 96mb, which is barely enough to boot Mac OS X (although ok for Mac OS 9 if you arn't planning to do much). There are a few settings you may want to play with be for you use mol.
#Linux emulator for mac install
This assumes that you have a working install of Mac OS X or 9, on a partition on you harddrive somewhere. If you are not comfortable with editing text look at NanoHowto. Sudo apt-get install mol-drivers-macos # for MacOS 9 Sudo apt-get install mol-drivers-macosx # for MacOS X This can be done using Synaptic Package Manager or by running the following commands sudo apt-get install mol See AddingRepositoriesHowto for more information. You may need to add this repository to get some of the drivers: woody/. You will need to install the following packages mol and mol-drivers-macosx and/or mol-drivers-macos for MacOS X and/or MacOS 9 support. To install all of Mac-on-Linux, you'll need to enable the universe and multiverse, see AddingRepositoriesHowto for details. The MOL kernel modules are included in DapperDrake so it is no longer necessary to compile and install them manually. It is also possible to use MOL to install MacOS into a disk image, see man mol for more details. This howto assumes that you have a working install on MacOS on your computer. As it does not need to emulate a processor it runs at near native speeds.
It requires a Mac OS (9/X) and PowerPC computer. Mac-on-Linux (MOL) allows you to run MacOS 9 and MacOS X from within Linux.
