[B2-devel] In OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion, both SS and BII cannot mount CD-ROMs

[Ronald P. R. <ron...@xs...>]

It appears that in OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) both SheepShaver and BasiliskII can no longer mount CD-ROMs. The issue is identical in both emulators:

When the CD is mounted in OSX and the emulator is started, the emulator finds the disk but cannot read it and offers to initialize or eject it.

When the emulator is running and the CD is inserted, the disk is mounted in OSX but nothing happens in the emulator.

When a bootable (Mac OS system install) CD is mounted in OSX and the emulator is started with no other bootable volumes available, the emulator pauses with a light grey screen, apparently finds and inspects the CD, then the CD is ejected, and the emulator proceeds to the known screen with floppy image and blinking question mark.
