It’s likely given the progress that Snow has made (and will keep making), but no specific goals or timelines.

Yep, you can see it at https://infinitemac.org/1991/System%206.0.8?machine=Mac+SE+(Snow) (or any other OS that the SE supports). You can follow progress at https://github.com/mihaip/infinite-mac/issues/437.

I'm not able to reproduce this in a native build with the same arguments and disk image (even when building with ASan and other diagnostic tools). It appears to be a double-free when using timers, which are more frequently used by the JS build (since it polls for new data).

I built those images a while back (for Basilisk II for 8.1 and SheepShaver for everything later). IIRC I did a universal install for all of them, any ideas for what enablers might be required (also, I thought they went away with later OS versions)?

Some not very productive discussions (an issue tracker is not a forum), so I locked it for a bit. Unlocked now.

In this case it's reading from the DBDMA registers (which are memory-mapped), so it seems a bit unusual to read 1 byte from a word-sized register. Even if making the 1-byte read work (as joevt did in https://github.com/joevt/dingusppc/commit/3ab60e486a8b2d80b241f0e939a86ef320035631), the Finder...

The issue appears to be the Apple Photo Access extension -- disabling it both makes the non-DWORD read go away, and allows the Finder to successfully start.

Thanks for that tip, I see the second video window in the native build. It turns out the JS side is actually fine with this, since the Sixty6Video never displays, so only the ControlVideo updates being sent. The actual issue with JS was that the alpha channel ended up being 0, and the JS side...

https://infinitemac.org/run?disk=Mac+OS+8.1+Disk+Tools+%28PPC%29&machine=Power+Macintosh+7500 renders the checkboard for a brief period and then the cursor appears (and responds to input), but everything outside of it is black. The (upstream) native build doesn't show the cursor at all.

I've updated the Infinite Mac build with the latest upstream DingusPPC code, and the 6100 should be restartable again. FWIW the fork that I have (https://github.com/mihaip/dingusppc) is just for Infinite Mac-specific changes. I usually rebase it (from the upstream at...

The fact that it boots 7.1.2 with a “Welcome to Power Macintosh” message is a pretty good way to show that it’s a 6100.

Thanks! Mostly credit to @powermax and @joevt, they've done the bulk of the work in getting DingusPPC to the point where it can boot real OSes. Now that there's SCSI HD support, it should be possible to attach multiple devices to the emulated bus, I'll look into making the additional drives...

it can also boot from the 7.1.2 install CD (with graphical glitches) and a hard disk image (though it gets stuck pretty soon after the Welcome to Power Macintosh screen). I’m in the DingusPPC Discord talking to some of the other people working on it. It sounds like the SCSI implementation is not...

joevt is right, the 6100 machine is DingusPPC-based, and the disk tools floppy gets the furthest so far. You can track the work at https://github.com/mihaip/infinite-mac/issues/219.

Thanks, that worked (not sure I couldn't get the option to be enabled earlier, but it works now).
