Has anyone seen any ISO's of BeOS (4.5 or 5) for PPC? If I recall it didn't run on G3 or higher, but I do have a 7300 I'd like to try it on. I can't seem to find it anywhere, anyone got a source for it? |

I recently posted in the old BeOS topic to say that I finally received my copy of BeOS 4.5 for Intel and PPC and the BeOS bible. I still haven't had a chance to try it out though. However I think spaceboy said if I sent him a copy he would upload it somewhere for everyone else (I only have a 56k connection ATM).Anyway email me at adamhope@IHATESPAMoldsmithy.freeserve.co.uk obviously remove IHATESPAM and we can sort something out. EDIT I forgot to mention, although it won't work on Macs that shipped with a G3 it apparently works with G3 upgraded Macs

Yep, this is correct. Will look in detail at specs on box when I get home from work tonight. Cheers Steve/Jobf =====

Just remember to do a raw device image.Sorry about the repetition. Every image I've seen on Hotline is missing the BFS partition, so it won't work at all. Official 68kMLA Music and NeXT Expert

Ok, so just say I *did* have a BeOS disc, how exactly would I go about making an image that keeps the BFS partition intact?

Use OS X Disk Copy to image the CD (not an individual partition but the whole thing). Other programs might work, but I'm not sure how to use them.Official 68kMLA Music and NeXT Expert
