Feature request: Support Mac OS X 10.0

claunia commented 9 years ago

Seems to fail loading display driver, so installer quits.

Have you tried booting Mac OS X in safe mode? You should then be able to remove the display driver extensions to make it use only the unaccellerated framebuffer mode in order to be also able to boot in normal mode.

For safe mode either hold the shift key during boot or use nvram boot-args="-x"

http://virtuallyfun.superglobalmegacorp.com/2011/03/24/10-years-of-os-x-10-0/ 10.0 does boot in single user mode. 10.1 does boot on PearPC 0.4.0. With a little playing around you might be able to find a way to get 10.0 to boot in basic "safe" mode by disabling some extensions. Or it may boot by using some extensions from 10.1, which obviously work on PearPC 0.4.0, in 10.0.

Anyone who wants it should help to find what's stopping it from booting.

Running latest master I get this error message when booting 10.0 Kodiak DP1:

From what I've googled it's an unimplemented hack somewhere here: https://github.com/tycho/pearpc/blob/master/src/io/prom/promosi.cc#L478 . do you have any pointers how to solve this issue?

I've found a link to a binary file where its author says this version of pearpc can boot Mac OS X DPs and 10.0. But the link is dead so I cannot verify and neither am I able to contact the author.

He said something about real-mode boot-loader, could it be the issue of real mode.

If you can give me the link I can try to get it by the Wayback Machine
