![]() ![]() Tried a few and the one I have right now worked best. And as I said before, good 64k ROMS "images" are hard to find on the web. I have a Macintosh Tour that's in English that won't work correctly with Mini vMac (64k ROM) and not at all with the 128k ROM version. There are now two possible leads:ġ/ Mini vMac (128k emu, 64k ROMS) and the Mac Plus are having problems with the disks. The "good ones" boot fine with a 64k ROM version of Mini vMac. I was still using my Mac Plus, with 128k ROM. I tried to boot from the original MFS, 400k formatted 400k disks and it still gives me the SAME error: ID<7 What is the next thing to try? If anyone has an image of the 128k tour that's MiniVMac friendly, I'd like to test its finder & system files with my tour.Īlso, if someone knows how to edit and fix system files, that would really help me! I do have a copy of CP FileFix on my SE/30. I should point out that this US 128k Tour has a few problems ( I cannot use the Keycaps DA and when I boot this disk in MiniVmac it tells me that the computer is behaving abnormally. I swapped the system & finder from that image and it crashes but it doesn't display any error codes: the dialog box flickers and you have to reboot. I tried another Mac Tour, the english version. Mouse movements are dictated by the script, which does not "see" the dialog box and continues clicking on the wrong stuff that's greyed out. Sometimes, it starts and immediately prompts you to the following dialog box: "The disk needs some repairs" but in that "mode" you can't interact with the system. But the script was not designed to work with those files, and when you click on "Show me the desktop" for example it starts and does not crash but it doesn't click on the right things. ![]() But since this is a "tour" disk it used a special version of the finder and had to use something called "realfinder" which works btw since I tested that tour with the system startup version of finder and system and it doesn't crash when using these ones. The problem is probably with the finder or system file. I don't think there's a way to bypass this privilege violation thing. If the computer attempts one of these instructions while in User mode, a Privilege Violation error results. Some of the instructions can only be executed in Supervisor mode. The Macintosh should always be in Supervisor mode, but sometimes is placed in User mode. The Motorola 68000 runs in Supervisor or User mode. I don't know if that means "error 7" which is : Whatever I do, I always end up with an error, ID<7 (tried on an actual Mac Plus, it did the same). Maybe it works on the actual computer? Mine has Rev A ROMs. It's currently in transit to Uni's house. I cannot try them on the actual 128k because it needed new RAM chips. Even "let me use my macintosh!" crashes MiniVmac (I should point out at this moment that I am using an original Mac 128k, 64k ROM) When you boot off MiniVMac with the Mac Tour disk, it prompts you to the "early" finder, that's the 6 white boxes with the grey background but you cannot click on either of them. ![]() I have uploaded the disks on the MacGarden. MacWrite, MacPaint, and System Startup work fine. ![]() These are special because they're in French and I couldn't find them anywhere on the net. I was able to make some copies of my original 1984 disks. I have re-lubed both of my 400k floppy drives. ![]()
