That shot is actually from within WinUAE, since it was more convenient to set it up there.

It also runs on my A1200 w/68030@50Mhz 64MB ram. Though I must admit AGA is a little on the slow side for this.

As for how I got it running, I just installed OS8 normally, then did the 8.1 update. I didn't do anything special on the Mac side.

Tool types:
NOCOPYBACK
720KKLUDGE
REMAP8K

As for full config that's a lot to post, but I believe the relevant bits are:

Memory Settings:
- Allocate Mac ROM memory first
- ROM memory type: Any

Miscellanous:
- MacOS 8 mode

The ROM I got from an old Mac at my old university that was being thrown away. I don't remember exactly what it was, but I think it was a Quadra 900. A 1MB rom.

Would you mind posting your Shapeshifter config, tooltypes and ROM image version and how you got this running? I tried for ages to get 8.1 working in Shapeshifter and it just hung all the time.

Possibly. Still works on ShapeShifter, though.

Maybe because you don't have the right ROM image?
