BASILISK II INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS |
| 2 |
===================================== |

System Requirements |
| 5 |
------------------- |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
To use Basilisk II, you need either a 512K Mac Classic ROM image or a |
| 8 |
512K or 1MB 32-bit clean Macintosh ROM image. You also need a copy of MacOS |
| 9 |
(0.x thru 7.5 for Classic emulation, 7.x or 8.0/8.1 for Mac II emulation). |
| 10 |
For copyright reasons, none of these items are included with Basilisk II. |
| 11 |
MacOS 7.5.3 and earlier versions can be downloaded from Apple and various |
| 12 |
other Internet sites. Mac ROM files are not freely available. You have to |
| 13 |
own a real Mac and read out its ROM. No, I don't know where you can download |
| 14 |
ROM files. No, I won't send you one. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Depending on the platform you use, Basilisk II has additional requirements: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
BeOS: |
| 19 |
You need BeOS R4 or later versions. |
| 20 |
Basilisk II cannot do Mac Classic emulation. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Unix: |
| 23 |
You need X11R6 and a "make" utility with the VPATH feature (e.g. GNU make). |
| 24 |
For serial, ethernet and audio support, you need pthreads. To use the GUI |
| 25 |
preferences editor, you also need GTK+ version 1.2 or better. On Linux, you |
| 26 |
need glibc 2.0 or better. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
AmigaOS: |
| 29 |
You need at least a 68020 and AmigaOS 3.0 or better. To get the GUI |
| 30 |
preferences editor, you need gtlayout.library V39 or later. To get sound |
| 31 |
output, you need AHI V2 or later. Both items can be found on Aminet. You |
| 32 |
also need the "PrepareEmul" utility that somes with ShapeShifter (or any |
| 33 |
equivalent PrepareEmul substitute). The AmigaOS version of Basilisk II |
| 34 |
cannot do Mac Classic emulation. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Windows: |
| 37 |
You need at least Windows NT 4.0. Windows 95 and 98 can be used too, with a |
| 38 |
somewhat reduced set of features. Basilisk II supports DirectX version 5 or |
| 39 |
later, but version 3 may also work, depending on your graphics card. |

Installation |
| 43 |
------------ |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
BeOS: |
| 46 |
If you have a binary distribution of Basilisk II for BeOS, there are |
| 47 |
executables for BeOS/PPC and/or BeOS/x86 included. Basilisk II cannot run |
| 48 |
concurrently with SheepShaver. Trying to do so will crash Basilisk II, or |
| 49 |
SheepShaver, or both. |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
If you have the source distribution, do the following: |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
cd src/BeOS |
| 54 |
make |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
This will produce an executable "BasiliskII" in the "obj.ppc" or "obj.x86" |
| 57 |
directory. To use Ethernet, you also have to do: |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
cd SheepNet |
| 60 |
make install |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
On a PowerPC system, you also have to do: |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
cd SheepDriver |
| 65 |
make install |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
Unix: |
| 68 |
To compile Basilisk II, do the following: |
| 69 |
|
| 70 |
cd src/Unix |
| 71 |
./configure |
| 72 |
make [or "gmake" if you have GNU make and "make" fails] |
| 73 |
make install [optionally] |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
To use Ethernet networking under Linux, you either have to configure your |
| 76 |
kernel for ethertap support or make and install the "sheep_net" driver |
| 77 |
(this is explained in the README file, at the description of the "ether" |
| 78 |
preferences item). |
| 79 |
|
| 80 |
This is what Brian J. Johnson says about compiling for IRIX: |
| 81 |
"I recommend compiling with "-Ofast". This requires changing "-g" |
| 82 |
to "-Ofast" in the Makefile, and adding "-ipa" to LDFLAGS. This |
| 83 |
turns on massive interprocedural optimization, and makes for much |
| 84 |
better performance." |
| 85 |
|
| 86 |
ATTENTION NetBSD/m68k USERS: |
| 87 |
If you want to run Basilisk II natively (i.e. without CPU emulation), you |
| 88 |
must NOT use a pthreads library. User-level threads libraries such as PTL |
| 89 |
interfere with the signal handlers installed by Basilisk II and kernel- |
| 90 |
level threads are not supported by NetBSD, so you will have to live without |
| 91 |
pthreads, and thus without serial/ethernet/audio support (but the "UDP |
| 92 |
tunnelling" network should work). |
| 93 |
|
| 94 |
ATTENTION NetBSD/mac68k USERS: |
| 95 |
Current (as of July 2000) versions of the NetBSD/mac68k kernel have a bug |
| 96 |
that not only prevents Basilisk II from running properly but seems to even |
| 97 |
cause kernel panics under certain conditions! Apply the following patch to |
| 98 |
/sys/arch/mac68k/mac68k/macromasm.s, recompile and re-install the kernel |
| 99 |
and reboot before using Basilisk II: |

AmigaOS: |
| 126 |
If you have a binary distribution of Basilisk II for AmigaOS, there is an |
| 127 |
executable included. You must also have the "PrepareEmul" utility installed |
| 128 |
that comes with ShapeShifter (or any equivalent PrepareEmul substitute, |
| 129 |
see the ShapeShifter docs). If you have the source distribution, do the |
| 130 |
following: |
| 131 |
|
| 132 |
cd src/AmigaOS |
| 133 |
make |
| 134 |
|
| 135 |
To recompile Basilisk II, you need the GeekGadgets development suite and |
| 136 |
PhxAss (which can be found on Aminet). |
| 137 |
|
| 138 |
Windows NT: |
| 139 |
If you have a binary distribution of Basilisk II for Windows, there is a |
| 140 |
Windows NT binary included. To access CD-ROMs under Windows NT, the driver |
| 141 |
"cdenable.sys" must be copied to your "\WinNT\System32\drivers" directory. |
| 142 |
To access CD-ROMs under Windows 9x, the driver "cdenable.vxd" must be copied |
| 143 |
to the "\Windows\System" directory. To recompile Basilisk II, you need |
| 144 |
MS Visual V++ 5.0 or later. Symantec C++ should work, too, with some |
| 145 |
modifications. See the "sysdeps.h" file in the "Windows" directory. |
| 146 |
|
| 147 |
The ROM file has to be named "ROM" and put in the same directory as the |
| 148 |
Basilisk II executable but you can specify a different location for the ROM |
| 149 |
file with the "rom" option in the preferences file (or with the preferences |
| 150 |
GUI). |
