The good news is that Netatalk 4.0.9dev is working fine on arm64, running in a NetBSD 10.0 VM (with rebuilt kernel) on a macOS Apple Silicon host. From a PowerBook G3 on the same physical network, connected via AppleTalk-over-Ethernet, I can see the server and copy files to the shared volume...

Excellent, thank you for the pointer! I did not know that had been added to QEMU. This invocation now automagically sets up both the virtual interface and the bridge interface on the host, where en4 is the physical Ethernet interface on the Mac that's hosting the VM: qemu-system-aarch64 \...

Good idea. I updated the AppleTalk section of the NetBSD wiki page to cover this. Today I built and installed Netatalk 4 from the main branch. There's no going back to earlier versions now; full steam ahead! arm64# /usr/local/sbin/atalkd -V atalkd 4.0.9dev - AppleTalk Network Manager Daemon...

Just to confirm, I pulled down cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-10.0/source/sets/syssrc.tgz and had a look at /usr/src/sys/arch/evbarm/conf/GENERIC.common. Sure enough, the option for NETATALK is commented out. If I compare with /usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/GENERIC, the NETATALK option is *not*...

That's my guess as well. Using the same QEMU virtual machine parameters, a Debian arm64 installation successfully loads the appletalk module. Yay!! Yes, I am running arm64 (aarch64) VMs on Apple Silicon hardware, so QEMU can take advantage of HVF acceleration. Next step: build and run 4.0.8...

I'm wondering if NetBSD still supports AppleTalk in the kernel "out of the box" as the docs suggest. In the past I've had success building netatalk and running afpd on current macOS systems (which provides AFP over TCP only), but couldn't get atalkd running because there was no kernel support...

That depends. The history of Jasmine with Rodime drives is not great. I had a 20MB Jasmine drive that didn't last all that long. Jasmine itself didn't survive into the '90s. There is a sad coda to Ray Lynch's story. Apparently his home and studio burned down in 2015 and he lost all his...

Possibly dumb question, but have to ask... is this system disk at least System 3.2/Finder 5.3? That's the earliest version that will let you boot a 512Ke. (512Ke was the nomenclature for a 512K with an 800K drive and the upgraded ROMs.)

It looks like he is running Performer 3.1 rather than the 3.5 version shown in the magazine article, since the Skip buttons in the main control panel were new to 3.5. This is what 3.1 looks like in Mini vMac. (Since it's a MIDI sequencer, there is no sound output to the Mac itself, only serial...

The software is Mark of the Unicorn's Performer. https://www.muzines.co.uk/articles/what-a-performer/7296 They created their own custom window definitions for a funky postmodern look. You can see the "stairstep" feature that cuts through the title bar just to the left of each window's title.

You can also use DART™ 1.5.x to create the images. It preserves the tag bytes.

1.2.7 RC4 works for me on macOS (M1, using the arm64 build.) There were some hiccups: 1. I found that I definitely needed a boot ROM file. Without it, attempting to boot from the floppy image would give me this error: "cpu68k_makeipclist: But! ipc is null!" Eventually I found a thread at...
