Frequently Asked Questions

Can I run Mac-On-Linux on x86 CPUs?

FAQ - Mol
No, there's no emulation, so PowerPC versions of MacOS will not run on x86. Although there is pearpc ( http://pearpc.sourceforge.net/ ) which is a similar application for other platforms.

Will I be able to run Windows/Linux/other x86 OS on my Intel Mac?

Mac OS X on Intel FAQ - Mac Guides
When the first Intel based Macs were released, it was revealed that they used EFI instead of BIOS, which is not supported by 32-bit versions of Windows XP or many other operating systems. This initially caused concerns that booting Windows on such a computer would be impossible. However, in March 2006, an open source solution was released to allow Windows to boot on an Intel based Mac, and on April 5 2006, Apple released Boot Camp to allow dual booting in either Mac OS X or Windows.

What about x86 versions of Mac OSX?

Mac-On-Linux was not written with x86 CPUs in mind, but if you feel like providing patches, it's certainly possible to add support. Since applications like vmware exist, it's not very high my list of things to do. See similar questions...

On Time RTOS-32 is for 32/64-bit x86 only. Do you plan to port it to other CPUs?

FAQ for On Time RTOS-32
On Time, we are specialized in the x86 family of CPUs. Rather than settling for the lowest common denominator of many different CPUs, we prefer to concentrate on one and take advantage of all of its unique features. Nevertheless, On Time RTOS-32 components RTKernel-32, RTFiles-32, and RTUSB-32 are designed to be very portable and are written in 100% ANSI C. Each has a system abstraction layer with only a few system dependent functions which need to be customized for a new CPU or OS. See similar questions...

Where can I get "drivers" for a Mac printer to run on my Mac system?

Herb's Mac Stuff FAQ
For a printer to work on your Mac, your Mac's operating system needs to have a "driver" for that printer. Additional software may be needed as well: check your operating system manual for details. For info on a printer's features, or on the OS, check Apple's Web site for the manual and or software. Both are available for download. I have on my Web site a list of Mac Web pointers which includes Apple's sites. Also check my list of paper manuals and Apple software that I offer for sale. See similar questions...

Will there be a port to the Mac / Linux?

Frequently Asked Questions
Not unless someone volunteers to do it :) It would be an understatement to say it would be a non-trivial task. Wine might offer a way to port the Gecko / control to Linux / x86 Unix systems using the Win32 API but linking to WINELib. Note that the control uses ATL which might have certain licencing issues surrounding it. The alternative is to write an open source ATL look-a-like, with the subset of functionality that the control requires. See similar questions...

How do I get files to or from my S-100 system to my [Mac, PC/Windows, Linux] system?

S-100 FAQ
Sooner or later, most people who own an S-100 system need to transfer a file to or from a DOS or Windows (or Macintosh or whatever) computer. A Google search of comp.os.cpm "groups" will find a discussion of this very topic that last occurred in early 2003. It's an old topic. Most people who need to establish serial file transfers to or from a CP/M system (or N* DOS system) of ANY sort end up doing something like this: get a SIMPLE file transfer program onto their CP/M system.
