I was not aware you didn't need darwin. I tried without darwin and could not boot.
there is a way to get around it, but you cant just not install darwin and do it your way.

I did it without Darwin and it worked fine!

Try borrowing your friend's copy of OSX 10.3 sometime, or go searcfh for the "exploding star" as I mentioned earlier.

and there is no "e" in said explosion either...

Is there a way to pick a windows share within PearPC? That'd be handy instead of changing ISOs.
Don't know if your question was answered, but it's really easy: just setup a Shared folder in Windows, and make sure that a passworded account has access to those shared files. If you run Administrator with a password, or your current account is using a password, you're good to go.
Then go to the Mac, click "Go > Connect to Server" and type in the following:
CODE
smb://mycomputer/
Obviously, you replace "mycomputer" with the network name of your PC. Mine is \\Yorbamicro, for example. So I would type
smb://yorbamicro. It's self-explanatory from there.

The movie played for about 3 seconds, then I got this:

Is this an elegant crash?

B-E-A-UTIFUL!As disheartening as a crash may be, this is truly a testament to the stability of PearPC; if there is a kernel panic inside the Mac, it stays contained in the Mac. It does not cause PearPC to vomit.

I have Panther (10.3) installed, but when I try run the OSXUpdate 10.3.3 package, it says my hard drive is not ready for this update. I get a red exclamation sign. Why?
I've installed Panther OSX 10.3, without problem
but after a reboot, the installer asks me the CD2.
I've tried to close the installer but nothing happens.
I've mounted the CD in pearpc, alcohol, deamon tool.....
But the installer doesn't detect the CD
What should i do?
Thanks

Has anyone got Richard Goodwin's nitely build to connect to the internet/network or work with the full screen? I could have sworn yesterday's build had that stuff in it... Maybe I am just confused by this big-ass thread?
Fozzieb
May 28 2004, 13:55
I'm too confused now, i'm sticking with the original net & fscreen build.
I think all the releases should have tha dates in the file name so we can keep track and state what is included in the build before things get out of hand.

What the hot key for fullscreen? F5? When I press it, it just sort of refresh and nope, no full screen. I'm using John's build as networking works there as oppose to rgoodwin's build which I tried earlier.

OK for all those having problems getting 10.3.4 connected to the internet I have fixed mine easily. Just follow these steps.
1) Go to your network connections in Windows Network.Right click your main connection and go to properties. Turn off Internet Connection Sharing.
2) Highlight both connections, your main one and the VPN connection. Right click and select Bridge.
3) Reboot your OS X in PearPC making sure PearPC closes completely. Restart it and interent should work.
At least that is how I got mine working.

May 28 2004, 15:05
I don't think it matters. Best way to do it is try it. Bridging connections mainly just lets you go from one LAN to another LAN seamlessly.
OH and I could browse my other pc's on the lan easily by using that suggestion a few pages back.

well, after 2 attempts to reinstall it and it quitting twice at the same time, about 2 hours in, i think ive come to the conclusion that my OSX ISO has been corrupted, it was fun while it lasted, i got everything working fine, however i no long have the patience for it, when it gets a little faster ill give it a go again

Richard Goodwin's nightly builds have the Win32 Networking v2 code in them now :-)! However they don't have the fullscreen patch anymore.
Any word when the fullscreen patch will be merged into CVS?

LOL Thats true!
I just read something on Toms Hardware about an app for making programs that don't use multiple processors work faster on a P4 with HT by making them use 100% of the physical cpu.
Aparently, if you go to task manager and set the Affinity of the ppc process, uncheck CPU 1, it will force ppc to run on CPU 0 which is the physical processor. they are saying that HT splits your cpu up into 2 cpus, the physical and the virtural in task manager, and CPU 1 is the virtural processor.
They also said you can disable HT in the bios but you will be losing performance because windows xp works more efficiently with 2 cpus or HT so it's not beneficial to disable it just for one or two apps.
they also have an application, from the article, that will save these settings for certain apps so you won't have to change the affinity every time you start pearPC
Hey guys - I just finished installing OS X and I've run into a problem. I'm using -
http://s87840517.onlinehome.us/pearpc.html - to guide myself through the setup process.
I did the following:
Quote -
Step 13: PearPC will quit itself after the installation. Before you restart PearPC, go inside
C:\pearpc\pearpc-0.1.1-win32-jitc folder and open the ppccfg_HD.txt file with your favorite text editor.
go to the line pci_ide0_slave_installed = 1 and change that 1 to 0
Save the file.
And I started up PearPC, and it won't load. I see the PPC command line thing window, with a Partition loading area. I need to do the "BOOT FIX".
Here's my problem: When I do this step - Step 4: A command line prompt will appear. Run command "pdisk" (with out the " ") - I don't see any "command line". Here's a screenshot of what I see. If anyone can help, it would be truly lovely.
Why is this thread NOW moved to 'Discussing Mac OS'. It blatantly ISN'T Discussing Mac OS, but emulation for an application designed for Windows and Linux. What use is this thread to Mac users? None - All it does do, IMO is draw more 'Windows' users to a forum for which they have no base - probably increasing trolling in the process - could someone please move this thread to somewhere where it'd be more fitting?!

His guide isn't clear. Use mine
GuideWhat you need to do is type in shell and press enter and then type pdisk. Are using darwin though? You need darwin for the boot fix.
