It may be possible to make an emulator for Darwin (the OS that Mac OS sits on top of), but an emulator for Mac OS would probably require a legal copy of Mac OS. So, no, there is no Mac OS emulator for FreeBSD. And I'd be surprised if it ever happened. NetBSD has (or had) a macho image activator, which is the first step in this process. But Kevin is right that most of the functionality of MacOS isn't in the kernel, and you'd need a copy of MacOS to run it in emulation. Plus there's a lot of Mach code that MacOS depends on that has no simple counterparts in FreeBSD, and that would be a lot of work to make happen. It's one of the things that's a barrier to entry for a simple, straight forward launchd port, for example. ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Depending on version and edition of Mac OS X, this may or may not be a legal suggestion; Apple has made various terms in their license that you can only virtualise Mac OS X on Apple-branded hardware. (Some creative types from a virtualisation forum once suggested taking the Apple stickers from the iPhone box and placing them on your PC, making it Apple branded. Not sure that would stand up in court.) If you do have the proper type of Mac OS X that can be virtualised legally on PC hardware, you still need the SMC to be emulated. That will need to be added to bhyve before you could boot Mac OS X natively, i.e. without hacks. > Has anyone tried to get an openfirmware loader running? Do current macs > still use openfirmware? OpenFirmware is used primarily on PowerPC, MIPS, and SPARC (via OpenBoot). I've also seen it running on a few ARM SoCs. I don't think I've ever seen a conformant implementation for x86. All Intel Macs use EFI 1.10 with Apple extensions. hth, --arw -- A.

For info regarding a compat layer for anyone wanting to work on that - cocotron.org is an mit licensed project similar to GNUStep - it has mostly focused on windows compatibility with Foundation usable on *nix flavours.

No I didn't, maybe it worth doing it :) I can do it if you suggest. I myself was brave (but officially mentor-less) while doing this :D, (I actually didn't know how i can find a mentor for this idea). I also didn't find interest among developers after call of review (for logically good sensible reasons, like why should we add it in kernel, who will maintain it, instability in first, Apple+Law issues, etc).

Re: Is there possible run a MacOS X binary
I had started a writing a Mach-O image activator monthes ago, but time/daily-life distracted me from continuing it. Maybe some day I continue it :D Currently it's available on my github[1] if it helps. I had some success-like running of some super-simple less-than 'return A+B' programs with it :) Best regards, Mokhi. == [1] https://github.com/m0khi/FreeBSD_MachO ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
