Mini vMac for the iPhone - Mac OS Emulation - Updated
By Aaron Besson at 10 December, 2008, 10:05 pm
OK - Mini vMac is really cool and brought a HUGE smile to my face… Totally reminds me of when I was a kid and our old II and SE etc. I got it working on my iPhone running OS 7.0.1, 7.5.5 and 6.0.8. Check out the developers website here. You can install by adding apt.namedfork.net/iphone to your Cydia repositories.
How to Use:
Tap with two fingers to toggle screen size.
Swipe up with two fingers to show the keyboard, down to hide it.
Swipe left with two fingers to insert disks.
Swipe right with two fingers for settings.
Where to get the .ROM file and .dsk files
I got the vMac.ROM file from here: http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Bit/6458/vMac.html
I got .dsk from here: http://www.geocities.com/basicman10549/
ROM Installation
The ROM file must be called vMac.ROM and placed in one of the following:
/Applications/minivmac.app/
/Library/MacOSClassic/
~/Library/MacOSClassic/
Disk Images
Mini vMac will look for disk images with .dsk and .img extensions in:
/Applications/minivmac.app/
/Library/MacOSClassic/
~/Library/MacOSClassic/
To insert disk images, swipe left with two fingers and the list of disks will appear. Disks already inserted will be greyed out.
Suspend
If you press the home button while the emulated mac has disks inserted, it will suspend. To quit Mini vMac properly, eject all disks before pressing home.
Settings
Swipe right with two fingers to show the settings dialog and change the virtual keyboard layout and opacity.
On the bottom of the settings view, there are Interrupt and Reset buttons.
