Any SheepShaver users out there? When I first set it up I was able to
connect to the local machine via the Chooser and share files that way.
Now when I try, it doesn't work. I have tried every combination of
internet OS 9 settings I can think of and SheepShaver just freezes solid
whenever I try to mount the main OS X drive (or my user folder). I have
to force-quit SheepShaver and restart the virtual machine. Maybe I
shouldn't have turned on TCP/IP?
Giving up on that, I have been dismounting the shared drive, copying
files to it, and then restarting the SheepShaver virtual machine in
order to re-mount the shared drive. This is a pain in the patootie. Does
anyone remember how to re-mount a drive in OS 9 without restarting the
OS? I'd rather have file sharing working, but at least if I could
remount the shared drive that would be something.
The author isn't supporting it any more, right? The latest version of
SheepShaver I have is labeled May 2006.
