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 wa…
G4 Required. The ZIF upgrade will get the system over the line but Apple has removed the kernel extensions for Gossamer and Heathrow so you will still only see a kernel panic.

My Grape iMac's CRT fails? The screen is rather dim but clear, it was burn in a bit. And it sometimes shows up red, witch I know in LCD's that the backlight is going so something e…
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 …

good choice, My Beige G3 AIO runs tiger quite well. Leopard strugles at times on my Digital Audio G4, it would probably brin…
You absolutely need a G4 to run Leopard from what I understand. Luckily you can drop in a G4 ZIF as long as it's 66 MHz bus compatible.
The oldest I've heard is Leopard on a G4 up…

I will soon be getting a G3 AIO from Mike (thanks!) and I paln on upgrading it ot at least a 500mhz G3, maybe a 1ghz chip.
How can I get leopard to run on this?
My assumption would be that you can't use a 68k ROM with a PPC emulator... good luck, as you'll need somebody to rip a ROM image from an older PPC mac, maybe a 8100? Or even better…
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 r…
I installed Mac OS 8.6 on my Sawtooth first with MOM, as long as it worked, it worked good, alas after a while opening any window in the guest OS would stall the VM.

You can call them emulators, or you can call them virtual machines, or you can call them compatibility environments. The point is that they run PPC code on PPCs, so the don't have…
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. He has an iMac G3, plus another iMac …
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. ht…
