os 4 on mac

os 4 on mac

Did some test, still believe it runs on mini mac, found some guides to make it work, but never came around in opening the mini mac:whistle: Uptill know all gathered information turned out ok.

You get the welcome screen garbeld, unreadable, but you can clearly move mouse, there is a fix, but still need to test it. I can feel it, looking at loading times, screen switches etc it is not a hoax.

You could even have the mac boot it default, there is a manual about open boot, and the morphos manual gives a way the commands too (multiboot morphos)

I am not in need to prove it to you guys, reactions are alway's childish on this kind of topic on other forums.

Pearpc is an old and incomplete product.. If it even can run mac os x in a proper way, how will it run Amiga os 4?

The thing is, when you get it working there will be probably some buts, wich might spoil the experience I know a couple for expample, it will run from the apple partition, no network, no full support..

Wondering it is worthwile all the bother
 
I've been using PearPC to emulate PPC Macs for some time, and it does run Mac OSX 10.4 perfectly. So I'm sure if someone had enough time on their hands they could get Amiga OS 4 to work. But I doubt it will ever happen.

Has it actually been confirmed that MorphOS will run on PearPC?
 
Screenshots can be faked though. Would need some video evidence and a guide to getting it running for real proof. Would love to try that myself.
 
video can be faked too!, show screen running what you want to see with the supposed machine in shot, while the actual machine running the program is under the desk
 
As Piru is one of the MorphOS developers I don't think he has much reason to fake anything.

The last thing I'd expect him to give on MorphOS or Rouge on OS4 is a guide to run the OS' under vitualization. They want to sell it for use with hardware.

A user mentioned on either a.org or aw.net that OS4 runs under Quemu, but the source was the disreputed ACK guy.

EDIT:

Bloodline and Piru discussing MorphOS on Quemu @amiga.org
A meaningless qemu screenshot by Piru
Piru telling people no qemu MorphOS in the wild
While looking for more qemu stuff, I found this fun statement by Rouge
