BASILISK II INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS |

===================================== |

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 better. On a PowerPC system you also need the |
20 |
"sheep" driver that comes with SheepShaver. To use Ethernet, you need |
21 |
the "sheep_net" add-on that also comes with SheepShaver (both items |
22 |
are included in the SheepShaver Trial Versions). The PowerPC version of |
23 |
Basilisk II cannot do Mac Classic emulation. |
24 |
|
25 |
Unix: |
26 |
You need X11R6 and a "make" utility with the VPATH feature (e.g. GNU make). |
27 |
For serial, ethernet and audio support, you need pthreads. To use the GUI |
28 |
preferences editor, you also need GTK+ version 1.2 or better. On Linux, you |
29 |
need glibc 2.0 or better. |
30 |
|
31 |
AmigaOS: |
32 |
You need at least a 68020 and AmigaOS 3.0 or better. To get the GUI |
33 |
preferences editor, you need gtlayout.library V39 or later. To get sound |
34 |
output, you need AHI V2 or later. Both items can be found on Aminet. You |
35 |
also need the "PrepareEmul" utility that somes with ShapeShifter (or any |
36 |
equivalent PrepareEmul substitute). The AmigaOS version of Basilisk II |
37 |
cannot do Mac Classic emulation. |
38 |
|
39 |
Windows: |
40 |
You need at least Windows NT 4.0. Windows 95 and 98 can be used too, with a |
41 |
somewhat reduced set of features. Basilisk II supports DirectX version 5 or |
42 |
later, but version 3 may also work, depending on your graphics card. |

Installation |
46 |
------------ |
47 |
|
48 |
BeOS: |
49 |
If you have a binary distribution of Basilisk II for BeOS, there are |
50 |
executables for BeOS/PPC and/or BeOS/x86 included. If you have the source |
51 |
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. Basilisk II cannot run concurrently with SheepShaver. Trying to |
58 |
do so will crash Basilisk II, or SheepShaver, or both. On a PowerPC system |
59 |
you must have installed the "sheep" driver that comes with SheepShaver. To |
60 |
use Ethernet, you must have installed the "sheep_net" add-on that also comes |
61 |
with SheepShaver |
62 |
|
63 |
Unix: |
64 |
To compile Basilisk II, do the following: |
65 |
|
66 |
cd src/Unix |
67 |
./configure |
68 |
make [or "gmake" if you have GNU make and "make" fails] |
69 |
make install [optionally] |
70 |
|
71 |
To use Ethernet networking under Linux, you either have to configure your |
72 |
kernel for ethertap support or make and install the "sheep_net" driver: |
73 |
|
74 |
make modules |
75 |
|
76 |
This should produce a kernel module "sheep_net.o" in the "Linux/NetDriver" |
77 |
directory. Now su root and say |
78 |
|
79 |
cd Linux/NetDriver |
80 |
make dev |
81 |
/sbin/insmod sheep_net.o |
82 |
|
83 |
This will install the device node "/dev/sheep_net" and load the driver. |
84 |
You should give appropriate access rights to /dev/sheep_net if you don't |
85 |
want to have to run Basilisk II as root. |
86 |
|
87 |
This is what Brian J. Johnson says about compiling for IRIX: |
88 |
"I recommend compiling with "-Ofast". This requires changing "-g" |
89 |
to "-Ofast" in the Makefile, and adding "-ipa" to LDFLAGS. This |
90 |
turns on massive interprocedural optimization, and makes for much |
91 |
better performance." |
92 |
|
93 |
ATTENTION NetBSD/m68k USERS: |
94 |
If you want to run Basilisk II natively (i.e. without CPU emulation), you |
95 |
must NOT use a pthreads library. User-level threads libraries such as PTL |
96 |
interfere with the signal handlers installed by Basilisk II and kernel- |
97 |
level threads are not supported by NetBSD, so you will have to live without |
98 |
pthreads (and thus, without serial/ethernet/audio support). |
99 |
|
100 |
ATTENTION NetBSD/mac68k USERS: |
101 |
Current (as of July 2000) versions of the NetBSD/mac68k kernel have a bug |
102 |
that not only prevents Basilisk II from running properly but seems to even |
103 |
cause kernel panics under certain conditions! Apply the following patch to |
104 |
/sys/arch/mac68k/mac68k/macromasm.s, recompile and re-install the kernel |
105 |
and reboot before using Basilisk II: |

AmigaOS: |
132 |
If you have a binary distribution of Basilisk II for AmigaOS, there is an |
133 |
executable included. You must also have the "PrepareEmul" utility installed |
134 |
that comes with ShapeShifter (or any equivalent PrepareEmul substitute, |
135 |
see the ShapeShifter docs). If you have the source distribution, do the |
136 |
following: |
137 |
|
138 |
cd src/AmigaOS |
139 |
smake |
140 |
|
141 |
To recompile Basilisk II, you need SAS/C 6.58. Earlier versions may not work. |
142 |
|
143 |
Windows NT: |
144 |
If you have a binary distribution of Basilisk II for Windows, there is a |
145 |
Windows NT binary included. To access CD-ROMs under Windows NT, the driver |
146 |
"cdenable.sys" must be copied to your "\WinNT\System32\drivers" directory. |
147 |
To access CD-ROMs under Windows 9x, the driver "cdenable.vxd" must be copied |
148 |
to the "\Windows\System" directory. To recompile Basilisk II, you need |
149 |
MS Visual V++ 5.0 or later. Symantec C++ should work, too, with some |
150 |
modifications. See the "sysdeps.h" file in the "Windows" directory. |
151 |
|
152 |
The ROM file has to be named "ROM" and put in the same directory as the |
153 |
Basilisk II executable but you can specify a different location for the ROM |
154 |
file with the "rom" option in the preferences file (or with the preferences |
155 |
GUI). |
