Trying to get this running on M2 Macbook Air using UTM - I can't run the qemu.command file as the OSX 10.14 Sonoma nanny state won't open the file in terminal.

Is there another way to open it? Or to get this running in UTM?

Thanks!

The qemu.command is a text file so you can open it with Textedit and copy-paste the command it contains.

CAREFUL: if the file contains variables or multiple lines, the copy-paste is not the right trick. In this case open a terminal, type "bash " (without the quotes but with the space), drag-and-drop the qemu.command on the terminal window and press enter ;)

I have been working in High Sierra and creating several "pre-made" QEMU Drive images for those who want to try QEMU on Modern Mac OS X systems and emulate our beloved Mac OS 9.2.2 :)

I have focused on a few configurations and will be posting all the drive images to our downloads within the next few weeks.

An Image of what's coming...


1) "Initial" Mac OS 9 Lives! Drive Image
This drive image for QEMU will be our 9.2.2 universal CD image installed fresh as a QEMU drive image;
http://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php/topic,2109.0.html
Basically a no frills, ready to go image, so that the user does not have to create a raw HD image file and install Mac OS 9.2.2,
simply copy the pre-made drive image and immediately boot to a fresh Mac OS 9.2.2 Virtual machine with our CD/ISO already installed




The files I've got from Hotline MacOS9lives were zip files with lots of files and folders... I tried the .img file in UTM but I guess the rest was necessary though I had/have no clue what to do with them. I read you mention a ready-made cd/iso from that thead : https://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php/topic,2109.0.html but here is a capture of what I get. I tried through MacOS9 directly using Classilia but got the same message. Well, I guess I'm lost  :-\

The Mac OS 9 images are here: http://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php?action=downloads;cat=9

Exactly as they where in the old structure.

many thanks for your help...and the correct links. Alas, that's what I feared: using the terminal and therefore doing things I don't understand, also I guess I have to "install" first a proper version of Qemu that might work on a Macbook Air running Sonoma (M3 chip). Tasks that are beyond my skills ...I need to learn the basics for Qemu, at least the basics.
