I read that you don't need a ROM file anymore with PPC Macs. You need a MacOS CD for generic macs. Those CDs have the ROM file on it!

let's create the EAB CSPPC club.
the one with the most csppc's will be the president.

DDNI · 10 April 2007, 21:29

Hmm no iFusion on A1200 BPPC....??

Gonna grab it and give it a try sometime though.

Flashlab · 10 April 2007, 21:31

Hehe keropi; great plan! You do know about Hybris though, being Greek and all?

keropi · 10 April 2007, 21:32

yes, I do not commit hybris with this.

Does one CSPPC + a CSMKIII + 2 BPPC's count as two CS PPC's

keropi · 10 April 2007, 21:43

no.
they need to be complete and working csppc's... that's not a crappy ppc club! only csppc's are accepted!

Flashlab · 10 April 2007, 21:53

Hope to be in the club soon!

keropi · 10 April 2007, 22:07

I have 2 csppc's... anyone with more?

@flashlab: u need to fill a registration card and submit your csppc for verification!

Hey! I verified the function of your 200mhz CSPPC...that must make me junior president of the club at least

Flashlab · 10 April 2007, 22:37

You mean submit my CSPPC to Greece?

ratterpat · 11 April 2007, 01:29

If anyone is interested I can upload a small text guide helping installing and setting up iFusion to The Zone.

keropi · 11 April 2007, 01:48

by all means upload it ratterpat!

so, the terrible burden of presidential life is mine, and mine alone... I have 2 csppc's... thus with my power, I make Amigaz the vice-president, since he also has a G-Rex4000D.
our lives will be changed now, we join the glorious ranks. Trips, jets , celebrities and high-class whores are now ours to grab. yeah!

ratterpat · 11 April 2007, 02:06

Guide is in The Zone.

Good luck and happy emulating!

The speed problem with iFusion is the hdd driver in MacOS 9 which was 68k. So the driver runs in emulation which doesn't perform very well of course. But for the rest it was useable just missing network support was the reason to uninstall it later.

Oh shut up

!

Flashlab · 11 April 2007, 07:56

But wouldn't that mean that real Macs with 604 processors suffered that 68k driver problem too? I guess that wouldn't be acceptable if it's really slow? Didn't Apple release a PPC driver at some point?

Missing network support is a shame really... Isn't there a solution like VLink or something as with ShapeShifter and Fusion?

Oops, now I remember.....apparently it was a bug with WarpOS and NOT iFusion. Jim Drew tried sorting it out with Sam Jordan (one of the WarpOS authors), but they never managed to figure it out.

Anyway, whilst doing a search I also found that iFusion may have problems under P96 (it was developed with CyberGraphX 4.x in mind to begin with) and with Mediator boards:

Finally, I found the FAQ that I used a few years back to help with troubleshooting iFusion problems:

I am not sure but there is a big speed different between MacOS 9 and MacOS 8 or 7 so I guess that its a driver problem somehow.
