<P> Basilisk II needs a copy of the MacOS to boot from. Anything from System 7
73
75
through to MacOS 8.1 should be usable.

<BR> (Felix Eng and I have only tested System 7.0.1, 7.1, 7.5.3 and 7.6,
75
77
although Felix also got System 6.0.8 to work with SE/30 Roms) </P>
77
<P> It is possible to use Basilisk II with a CD-ROM, but because most bootable
78
CDs have a minimal System Folder, it is better if you use a disk image with the
79
MacOS installed on it. </P>
81
<P> There are two options: either grab an image that someone else has made,
82
or create one yourself. If you have some time, and access to a MacOS install CD,
83
then these instructions will help you do the latter. </P>
85
<P> Note that there is currently no Install CD image on Apple's Web site -
86
they only seem to have MacOS 7.5.3 floppy disk images (all 19 of them).
87
If you do not have a friend with an install CD, you can possibly make one
88
by copying the System Folder from a bootable OS 7 or 8 CD, and burning that
89
onto a CD with the floppy disk images.
79
Basilisk II can currently boot from:
83
<TD> Most (not all) MacOS Install CDs will also boot your Mac. I also think
84
that some old Norton Utilities install CDs might have booted 68k Macs </TD>

<TD> Floppy disk image </TD>

<TD> Another Basilisk II user might be willing to loan you the disk image

98
<P> It is possible to use Basilisk II with a CD-ROM or floppy image, but
99
because most bootable CDs have a minimal System Folder, it is better if you
100
use a disk image with a more complete MacOS installed on it. The next section
101
tells you how to do this. </P>
103
<P> Note that there is currently no Install CD image on Apple's Web site, but
104
they do seem to have MacOS 7.5.3 floppy disk images (all 19 of them). Burning
105
those images onto a CD (not in the extended format) should allow you to install.

This makes getting files into Basilisk II harder. Luckily, older versions of
158
Apple's "Disk Copy" utility can create a disk image file that is compatible
159
with Basilisk II (<I>i.e.<.I> you can add it as a disk volume).
161
<P>Open 10.1's Disk Copy program, and create a "Mac Standard" image, or
162
use Disk Copy 6.??? in Classic.

185
<LI> In Basilisk II's preferences, go to the 'Disk Volumes' tab,

add your new image, and start the emulation </LI>
189
A new disk should appear on the emulation's desktop which contains the files
190
that you wanted to access. If the emulator complains about a disk needing to
191
be formatted, you may have chosen the wrong type of image type in 'Disk Copy'

197
<P> If your Mac is networked, then your emulated MacOS can also access that
200
<LI> Open Basilisk II, go to the Preferences, then the Hardware tab,
201
and set the emulator's EtherNet interface to slirp </LI>
202
<LI> Start the Emulator </LI>
203
<LI> In the emulated MacOS, open the TCP/IP Control Panel and set:
205
<LI> 'Connect via:' to EtherNet, and </LI>
206
<LI> 'Configure:' to 'Using DHCP Server' </LI>
208
<LI> Restart the emulation. </LI>
210
You should now be able to surf the web, or FTP download software,
211
in the emulated Mac. Not sure about AppleTalk networking, though. </P>
213
<P> Note that this does not require the OS X Mac to be using EtherNet,
214
any working TCP/IP networking should be fine. I have tested it over
215
DHCP EtherNet (ADSL modem/router at home), and with a static IP
216
address at work (which also has an external web proxy/firewall). </P>
