The Memory/Misc Tab (Figure 1) where you specify:.

Configure Basilisk IIД«asilisk II includes a program called BasiliskIIGUI.exe that can be used to configure Basilisk II, run BasiliskIIGUI.exe now.ДЇor most users youвЂ™ll only have to worry about 3 of the tabs shown in the Basilisk II Settings window: a Partition File that contains only the a single partition. A Drive Image is a bit for bit copy of a bootable drive that is prepended with the apple drive and partition table information, vs. If you are using your own Drive Images, CAUTION, Basilisk II MUST NOT be used to edit Disk Images that contain multiple partitions, if you try to edit a Drive Image that contains multiple partitions you will corrupt your Drive Image. You can boot from any of my single partition System 7.5.5 Images (Basilisk II will NOT boot System 6.0.8 or earlier), or create your own from an existing drive, or create a new image. Selecting an drive or volume image fileД«asilisk II typically is used with files containing a binary image of a hard drive partition/volume, it can also be used with drive images as long as the drive image only contains a single partition. If you are having issues with a download ROM file try renaming it to remove any spaces, dashes or special characters, e.g. I suggest putting the ROM file in to the same installation folder as the Basilisk II application but itвЂ™s up to you, just remember where you put it, youвЂ™ll need to know for Step 4 below. I personally use the Macintosh LCIII bios from my physical system, but you can also find the Macintosh LCIII rom, and other 68k rom files on the internet archive.

You probably know what Basilisk II is, but if not, a quick summary: Basilisk IIВ ( manual) is an open source emulator of 68k-based Macintosh computers that support 32 bit memory (see section 2) that runs on Windows, OS X and Linux (also works on some other platforms).Д«ecause Basilisk II is already well documented on sites like Emaculation, IвЂ™m only going to describe the basics of how to setup Basilisk II and focus on how you can use it to add or remove files from the System 6.0.8 or System 7.5.5 bootable images available to download on my site. This entry describes how you can edit my images on Windows 10 using Basilisk II. One of the most popular features of my site is my ready made System 6.0.8 or System 7.5.5 bootable images for use with 68k Macintosh systems.
