How to run Mini vMac on your ds

It may sound stupid, but..... What can you do with this ? can you really put games ? use programs like word (alike), explorer (alike) and that kind of stuff ?

yes, what vasco said, you also need to re-upload so we can use this. try (url)www.megaupload.com(url) that is the easyest one!

OK i re-uploaded it to megaupload.com. Vasco, Mini vMac is a emulator for the old macintoshes (dunno how you spell it). If you have a real mac with stuff on it, you can extract the disk and use it on Mini vMac.

Quote from: "Scor"I can't get my second (mac_hds.img) to mount, although I do follow your steps.
The HD doesn't appear on my desktop.
*edit*NVM, fixed it
*edit2*I made my .img to be 30Mb, but the mac_romdisk.bin keeps getting over 50 :s
*edit3*NVM again, fixed it
p.s. You are using release #2 right?

I have the same problem, but what do you mean with NVM? maybe you could help me :?:

EDIT: fixed, dont know why :lol: , but there wasn't da file named "disk0.dsk" in the data folder
it doesnt run on my microsd either...

now it's work on my microsd but there's an error message... ERROR: Failing loading ROM or something like that... But it should work now... is anyone able to help me or can anyone upload the folder so you can extract the files directly to your sd-card?
thx

I cant seem to get it to work because in the last step, the make.bat doesnt create a mac_romdisk.bin only a ds.gba file... help me please.

I get a warm feeling inside from running it. Now much point to it other than that, though.

Just a tip on the hard drives. I own a Mac of this generation and they used to come with a stock 20mb drive, so it may not be able to handle the larger sizes.

Reread the thread. It says somewhere in it.
