Could anybody tell me how to use Mac-On-Mac. I can't really figure it out. It has very little documentation. Thanks

Well I did the opposite. I placed the Mac OS 9.0.1 ROM image in the 8.6 system folder. It actually booted up with the Mac OS 8.6 welcome screen. That was short lived however, it was followed by this system bomb message. "Sorry, a system error has occurred. unimplemented trap To temporarily turn...

Does anyone know what would happen if I was to copy the Mac OS ROM file from the 8.6 CD while started up in 10.3.9 to the OS 9 system folder over the ROM version 9.0.1. Would that enable me to boot from 8.6? I also can't find any good documentation on how to use MOM. Could anybody give me some...

I copied the ROM image from my 68k Performa. Does anyone know how to get the QuickSliver machine running off that, or if that's even what I need to do. Thanks to everyone who has responded. I'm really glad I found this Forum. [:D] ]'>

No I don't. I just have the QuickSilver, a G5 and a Performa 630 CD which has 8.1 on it. I have a friend who I believe has an 8.6.1 borg disc.

Are you sure MacOnMac is not an emulator. It says it is on it's own site. http://maconmac.bastix.net By the way the site is down. I used the Internet Wayback Machine to view it. http://www.archive.org/web/web.php It lets you view webpages in a previous state even if they are no longer up...

OK. Thanks for clearing this up for me.

Thanks for the quick reply. I know some early G4s shipped with what they call a Borg 8.6.1 disc. I guess this was basically a disc that only came with certain iMac G3 and the first G4s. I know someone who has one of those. Do you know if that would run natively. Thanks

Hi, I'm new here. I've been looking everywhere on how to be able to do this. I want to be able to run OS 8 on my PPC G4 QuickSilver 2002. I stumbled upon this article, just now, written in 2006. http://lowendmac.com/sable/06/0911.html It states that you can somehow get older machines to run...
