Typically, games take a lot of system resources, so I have changed the configuration details for my Windows 10 gaming VM. It should now startup from the copied system on the new larger disk.Figure 2_My virtual machines Windows 10 – my gaming VM In the volumes list in preferences, remove the original 'MacOS9.dsk' volume, so SheepShaver can start up from the copied system. (This is called 'blessing' the System Folder.) That way the folder will obtain its icon. If it only shows a generic folder icon, open the folder so the Finder can 'see' the 'System' and 'Finder' files inside. When the copy is complete, check whether the System Folder on the new volume shows its System Folder icon.

Copy all files and folders from the Classic HD volume to the new larger volume In the dialog, choose an appropriate name for the volume and choose Mac OS Extended for the format. Allow the new volume to be initialized. In the volumes list in SheepShaver preferences, create a larger volume, for instance 2 GB (2000 MB) in size. Tidy up the SheepShaver desktop, put all loose files and folders on the disk where they belong (where they came from). The image with the system folder is 'MacOS9.dsk', 'Mac OS ROM' is the rom file.īut copying of all content of that disk to a larger one needs to be done inside SheepShaver, there the disk s called 'Classic HD'. everything i move to the /Users/Shared/ folder just showes up in something called 'Unix' in the emulator.Īt what point should i change the name of the files and which file name should i use? I think i vaguely remember doing that the first time i set up COI but i haven't done it since. I haven't changed the names of any files. Could not find aa translation extension with appropriate translators.' 'The document 'AOEII_Gold.toast' could not be opened, because the application program that created it could not be found.

It did create an AOEII_Gold.toast file but if I click on it I get another error message: 'An error has occurred while expanding the file 'AOEII_Gold.toast_.sit' (The archive may contain damaged content). I got a different error message that said: sit file inside of COI but it didn't work properly. When I was trying to install I was just clicking on the installer app inside the file folder and hoping that it would work (because i'm not very bright). So when I copied it into the COI the emulator just saw it as a regular file folder. sit file i did it outside of COI which mounted the Disk image to the host OS. Ok, I think I have realized the problem (It was me all along).
