"Along with some old fashioned web optimizations, this makes the emulator show the Mac’s boot screen in a second and be fully booted in 3 seconds, even with a cold HTTP cache," Parparita wrote.ĬPU usage was another issue. To solve the download problem, Parparita compressed the disk image and broke it up into 256K chunks that are downloaded on demand rather than up front.
#BASILISK II MACOS SIERR INSTALL#
Parparita details some of his work in this blog post.īeginning with a late 2017 browser-based port of the Basilisk II emulator, Parparita wanted to install old apps to more faithfully re-create the experience of using an old Mac, but he wanted to do it without requiring huge downloads or running as a separate program as the Macintosh.js project does. Instead, it's the creative solutions that developer Mihai Parparita has come up with to enable persistent storage, fast download speeds, reduced processor usage, and file transfers between the classic Mac and whatever host system you're running it on.

What makes the project unique isn't necessarily that it's browser-based it has been possible to run old DOS, Windows, and Mac OS versions in browser windows for quite a while now.

Great! Here are some ideas on how to make it even better. Thanks for distributing BasiliskII in the AppImage format for all common Linux distributions. If you would like to have the executable bit set automatically, and would like to see BasiliskII and other AppImages integrated into the system (menus, icons, file type associations, etc.), then you may want to check the optional appimaged daemon.

If you would like to update to a new version, simply download the new BasiliskII AppImage. This is entirely optional and currently needs to be configured by the user. If you want to restrict what BasiliskII can do on your system, you can run the AppImage in a sandbox like Firejail. Then double-click the AppImage in the file manager to open it. Use at your own risk!ĭownload the BasiliskII AppImage and make it executable using your file manager or by entering the following commands in a terminal: Follow these instructions only if you trust the developer of the software.

This is a Linux security feature.īehold! AppImages are usually not verified by others. However, they need to be marked as executable before they can be run. Unlike other applications, AppImages do not need to be installed before they can be used. Running BasiliskII on Linux without installation Most AppImages run on recent versions of Arch Linux, CentOS, Debian, Fedora, openSUSE, Red Hat, Ubuntu, and other common desktop distributions. No system libraries or system preferences are altered. Download an application, make it executable, and run! No need to install. Awesome!ĪppImages are single-file applications that run on most Linux distributions.
