Shoebill - a Macintosh II emulator that can only run A/UX
See the wiki on https://code.google.com/p/shoebill for better
documentation on building and running Shoebill.
*** RUNNING ***
You will need
* OS X and a 64-bit Intel Macintosh
(32-bit builds may be possible in the future)
* A Macintosh II or IIx ROM
* A disk image with A/UX 1.x.x or 2.x.x installed
* The kernel on that image (/unix). Shoebill cant read
SVFS or UFS file sytems yet to load the kernel directly
from the disk image.
To boot A/UX
* Backup your disk images!!
When Shoebill inevitably crashes, your A/UX boot image
will very likely be corrupted - sometimes so severely
that A/UX cant even boot enough to run fsck.
* Open Shoebill.app and select Preferences menu item
* Set the paths for your ROM, kernel, and disk image(s).
* Do use SCSI ID #0 for your A/UX boot image.
* Give A/UX a reasonable amount of RAM - say, 32MB
* Press “Apply and Run”
*** BUILDING ***
1) cd to shoebill/
2) make # to build shoebill_core
3) xcodebuild -project gui/Shoebill.xcodeproj # to build the Cocoa GUI
