Hello
What are you using for running Mac OS 9 (*) on a x86-64 machine? It
seems there are only two ways:
(a) running a ppc linux kernel with MOL under QEMU, run Mac OS inside MOL.
(b) running SheepShaver
Any good/bad experiences with either of those or other ways?

Hi Christian
You may run pearpc and mol, SheepShaver or Basilisk II. You can get more
info from
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060509180914879&lsrc=osxh
about the latter two.
Easiest would be to get an old mac from someone...
Best Regards, Adrian.

You mean running a linux system inside pearpc and from there run MOL
(the same way I suggested with qemu)? Would you recommend pearpc over
qemu for that purpose?
SheepShaver or Basilisk II.
Basilisk II won't run Mac OS 9, fro

As far as I know, Basilisk II is an m68k Mac emulator rather than ppc. It
sounds like the application needed is ppc native.

Weren't you trying to run OS9? This is definitely OSX, as the classic

Hm, strange, I wasn't aware that any OS X stuff was on that partition as
well. And when booting that partition through MOL it definitely booted

Just install Mac OS 9 directly under your qemu VM.
We're waiting for your confirmation that you have first-hand experience
of running Mac OS 9 directly under qemu, or can refer to reports of

Just for the record, here's my current status:

it seems there are three possibilities now:
