mikesown Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 I tried it a long while ago. It is overrated imho. Almost no applications were made for it outside the core OS utilities, and there is no rosetta like functionality, so you pretty much can't run anything on it.

So you may be able to run some NeXT programs on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSD -> NeXT -> Rhapsody -> OS X Server -> OS X Those are the degrees of seperation...basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blahsucks Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 It's not even technically true BSD; it's the Mach kernel. It goes more like this: BSD -> Mach -> NeXT -> OpenStep -> Rhapsody -> OSX Server -> OSX Macintosh -------------> Copland/OS8 ----------> MacOS 9/Classic -----^ It's a little lopsided, and the timing is off, but it's close enough.

iLux Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 It's a little bit more complicated BSD-->Mach-->NeXTSTEP-->OPENSTEP+NetBSD-->Raphsody DR1+BSD Lite-->Rhapsody DR2-->Mac OS X Server-->Mac OS X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stryder Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Rhapsody did not use the Darwin kernel. It did not use Carbon or Cocoa for application development. It did not support kexts like the current OS X does... so what you get is what you get. When you install it, whatever is on it is whatever you can run, and whatever drivers are on it (very, VERY, few) are all you get. You think the drivers included with Darwin are sparse, Rhapsody DR2 had support for only a handful of video cards, and a few network cards. It's not even worth the download to try it out. It was cool when I got it in my mailing, 'cause I thought "hmmm, Mac on intel... ", and tried it out. But that's as far as it goes, trying it out... it was really buggy for me.

RevoX Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 there's a website named www.openstep.se that works on bringing rhapsody to life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sampson Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 the reason there was no cocoa/carbon was because they were trying out the yellowbook api functions. they're a set of apis that are platform inspecific to make compiling an app on x86 or ppc a breeze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blahsucks Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 I'm pretty sure NeXTStep and OpenStep implemented Cocoa (at least in an early fashion). Rhapsody was simply an upgrade on OpenStep, so I'm thinking that there was Cocoa in Rhapsody. Maybe not the same Cocoa, but a nice stepping stone for NeXT software developers. And YellowBook = Cocoa, BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikkorasu Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 i have rhapsody dr1 and dr2 both ppc and x86. Runs nicely on my pentium 2. Is there any way you could get me a copy of DR1 and DR2 for x86? I'd like to try them out and tinker with it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
