early attempt to boot on PearPC emulator (cannot find boot file) #25

Closed Barnacl437 closed 1 month ago

When I discovered this, I think I may try on using PearPC instead of DingusPPC because I am more familiar to the pear one. It was able to detect the Arc FW partition...

But seems like it cannot find a boot file (portion of the PearPC log below). Maybe the emulator fault or something. I haven't get much insight of this problem yet.

getStartBlock: 0 Apple_Free
getStartBlock: 1 Apple_Free
getStartBlock: 2 Apple_Free
getStartBlock: 3 Apple_Free
start: 512
cannot find boot file.

P/S: also during installation if any disc swap is required, then PearPC would not pass that, so rather an emulator thing.

PearPC doesn't implement MSR_LE, nor does it emulate a supported system. dingusppc-nt is currently the only supported emulator.
