run OSX in QEMU

[DrJägermeister]

Has anyone had any luck with the accelerator in Windows (2000)? I suspect that it is not compatible with the patched version of Qemu. When I use it on my system with the tiger image, it hangs with a spiked cpu and forces me to reboot in order to kill it.

 

The Kqemu accelerator works in my XP for some other VMs but it doesn't work for OSX86 on a PentiumM.

If I start OSX86 in Qemu without Kqemu (1) it works but if I start Kqemu (2) it doesn work anymore when I try to run OSX86 (3). Other Guest OS are still working with the Kqemu accelerator enabled, just the deadmoo image doesn't start again.

 

It hangs here, "logging windows application started" doesn't appear anymore:

 

 

In Linux it works great with and without the Kqemu enabled. (1) start OSX86 without Kqemu (it's complaining about), (2) su, (3) start Kqemu, (4) root logout, (5) start OSX86 with Kqemu:

 

"logging windows application started" appears and the GUI should start:

 

I will test a CVS Version to see if it's same.

hey, ive set up qemu for my tiger-x86-flat.img. i have no sse2 support. my image seems to be ok. guys from another topic said that if i havent got sse2 support i should use qemu but without acceleration. ive booted mac os x and ive seen : "debugger called: <panic>" and then kdp_poll: no debugger device. i used to boot it with vmware - but it loades and loades and i can wait forever (it just wont boot). help

 

i use winxp

I have this error if I don't specify platform=X86PC at the Darwin bootloader.

Be sure that you image is about 6GB and use a patched Qemu for SSE2 and RTL8139, also start with the option -no-kqemu in case you have it installed. Then it should work on a AthlonXP.

yeah I think pearpc is faster

Yeah, you need to upgrade your AthlonXP with a SSE3 CPU, then you can use VMware or install it on your hardware and it will be much faster.

Compared to VMware, Qemu is 4 times slower on the same PC (14.29 vs. 3.88):

VS.

Mine loops at the Login Window Started with a Could not connect to default WindowServer error.
