    Apple Network Server MacOS based ROMs found

    I've now uploaded it here: https://github.com/pappadf/powermac-nt-hal We can always find a better home for it later on - just want to make sure that you get access to it asap. Note that I didn't really take the time to clean it up or review it properly. There could be a lot of strange...

    Apple Network Server MacOS based ROMs found

    The best way to describe it: an experimental hack based on vibe coding + some bits and pieces from maciNTosh/maciNTosh-bandit/entii-for-workcubes projects. I will try to publish/upstream it somehow - I just don't know how yet. It will of course be under GPL-2.0 if I keep some code from the...

    New update (sorry for spamming, but I wanted to share latest): NT kernel running, uses the Cirrus graphics card in text mode, crashes on INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE:

    I was looking at the bandit fork (https://github.com/MCJack123/maciNTosh-bandit), however - showing my lack of understanding of ARC firmware vs. HAL: My impression is that the upstream https://github.com/Wack0/maciNTosh contains a couple of HAL implementations in binary form (e.g halgoss.dll)...

    Sorry for asking a perhaps stupid question, but what should the plan for the HAL be? 🤔

    I put an agent on the task for a few hours. You can see/follow the result here: https://github.com/pappadf/granny-smith/pull/135 Update: It actually seem to load the NT kernel now (though not yet boot it) - it asks for the HAL. This one will be tricky to pass. Note: This work is to a...

    I will try to fix some LE support and see how far I can get...

    I assume that one hard stop here is lack of little endian support. I guess that OF would make the switch to LE somewhere?

    A big thank you for taking the time both to try it out, and also to write down a lot of good and valuable feedback! It is much appreciated! I will answer in another thread, https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/the-granny-smith-emulator.5587/, as this will be a bit of a side track vs. this thread...

    The Granny Smith emulator

    I received a lot of valuable feedback and questions about my small emulator project in another thread (https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/apple-network-server-macos-based-roms-found.4756/post-49737), but I'm creating a new thread here to comment and answer, as this might be a bit of a side...

    Apple Network Server MacOS based ROMs found

    Yes, in principle it's possible to boot Mac OS with the "prototype" rom in the emulator (I've tested with system 7.6). However, let me add some voice overlay to manage expectations: First of all, a small disclaimer: an emulator is of course not real hw, so no result here transfers directly to...
