[q] quadra emulator not accepting system disks...
Hello, my mac emulator is working, and i have the 6 system disks for system 7.5... and when I put the 1st one in, it loads it, says Welcome to Macintosh and then Welcome to System 7.5 Your Macintosh needs certain software to start up in System 7.5 etc. moving right along, I click continue, and then... System 7.5 Installation The Installer cannot update the selected disk named Install Disk 1. Please click Switch Disk to choose a different disk. And under Destination Disk it shows Install Disk 1 and the Switch Disk option is faded, meaning I cannot click it! So is the Install option. does anybody know any solution? thanks Justin __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: [q] quadra emulator not accepting system disks...
there's not another option to select? what you're looking for is the hard drive... the install disk is obviously not what you're installing to... Also like the nanny said you'd be better off posting this on the other list...

Make a hardfile with the BII gui, assign it as a harddrive. Seems to me from the above you have no destination other than the install disk. ;) The emulation will boot and ask if you would like to initalize the drive from there try the install again. The Basilisk II config is the hardest thing about the emulation, I have never set it up right the first time, always save a config before running it, always load one you've made to make changes, this will save you frustration. Some OSes require a enabler to be installed before they will run, this depends on the cpu and the mac model you are trying to emulate. Not much of an issuse with the emulator. Try setting the model to Quadra 650 if you have problems. To swap files from the host pc to the mac emulation open the Basilisk II folder and copy the files into the Virtual Desktop folder. You can mount drives and folders or the whole of My Computer to be accesses from the emulation, use this option at your own risk, its safer to use the virtual desktop before starting the emulation. -- Quadlist is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
