This emulator does a good job of emulating an Apple IIGS. Various IIGS
|
||
|
|
hardware devices are also emulated (see README file) but this version
|
||
|
|
is still an alpha so you might find a few things missing.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
XGS requires a copy of the IIGS ROM to boot up and this port should
|
||
|
|
attempt to FTP a copy of it from the Asimov archives (if it is still
|
||
|
|
available). If you have to obtain a copy of it manually then all you
|
||
|
|
should need to do is drop it in the distfiles directory to allow the
|
||
|
|
port to build. The md5 checksum file is specifically for the version 1
|
||
|
|
ROM so you may have to alter it should you decide to use a version 3
|
||
|
|
ROM. Also, this ROM cannot be distributed due to copyright reasons.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please check out the README file in either the working directory or
|
||
|
|
/usr/local/share/xgs/ (or equivalent on your system). As this package
|
||
|
|
has no man pages you will need to pick up the basics from there. All
|
||
|
|
author credits can be found in these files also.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When loading disk images be sure to use the full path of the
|
||
|
|
file you're loading.
