This is my notes on installing NeXTSTEP onto Qemu. I had originally posted this on bsdnexus, however the links I had used for the graphics are nolonger working.
OPENSTEP for Mach supports multiple partitioned hard disks, allowing the user to install and boot several operating systems from the same local hard disk. Larger local disks are recommended for stand-alone systems or for systems with a local non-OPENSTEP for Mach partition. When you see the Install NextStep dialog box on the screen proceed as for a normal OpenStep installation. Choose the software components you want install. Then click on ’Install’. At the end of this installation phase OS restarts and then you’ll be automatically put in the OpenStep desktop under the default ’me’ user. GNUstep Overview. GNUstep is a mature Framework, suited both for advanced GUI desktop applications as well as server applications. The framework closely follows Apple’s Cocoa (formerly NeXT’s OpenStep) APIs but is portable to a variety of platforms and architectures. OPENSTEP Installation Guide What is this? OPENSTEP was an operating system created by NeXT Software Inc. It served as the basis for Mac OS X after Steve Jobs came back to Apple after Apple acquired NeXT. This is simply to teach and show computer history. OPENSTEP 4.2 User for Intel - Download; OPENSTEP 4.2 Developer for Intel. To download and install OpenSees the user is required to download both the OpenSees and Tcl/Tk packages. The OpenSees and Tcl/Tk packages can both be downloaded from the OpenSees binaries webpage opensees.berkeley.edu/binaries.html. The binaries download page will be similar to that shown below.
Please note that I’m not going to build an ’accelerated’ version of Qemu, I’m trying to keep this build as ’stable’ as possible. I’m going to assume you know how to use vi. I would recommend trying the 0.9.0 before you try anything else. 0.8.0 seems somewhat unstable, and the busmouse driver doesn’t work on 0.9.1 .
I’ve tried to keep links to QEMU up to date, but official site no longer carries the old stuff so it’ll probably fall into disrepair eventually.
It is worth nothing that my Pentium 3 cannot start the GUI portion. I really don’t know why. (I did try -O1 for CFLAGS)
Also with regard to the NeXTSTEP part I’m using ISO images. I have just had too many problems with the physical media.

With the c compiler looking good, it’s time to extract the dependancies for Qemu.SDL

To compensate for qemu’s configure, and some oddities in MinGW’s handling of /usr/local you’ll need to do some fixes..qemu-0.8.0 NOTES
Extract Qemu and integrate the patch.

Extract Qemu and integrate the patch.
Now configure Qemu
So far this is the ’best’ version of Qemu for NeXTSTEP.Openstep Installation Guide Minecraftqemu-0.9.1 NOTES
I’ve heard the reason this version will not work on Vista is something trivial:Installing NeXTSETP
Ok now lets start with nextstep. Im going to populate a standalone copy of qemu
Lets create the 2 gig disk image..
Ok now here is the iso’s that Im going to use in my c:install directory:
Ok lets get started! Im using the cmd.exe so I can paste stuff in & out. Also I copy the disk images ontop of ’disk’because some qemu hosts dont have the ctrl-alt-2 function... Launching Qemu Install
Now let’s run Qemu like this:See Full List On Docs.microsoft.comStep 1
I like the verbose booting so I can see what is going on.
Step 2Step 3Step 4
It’s time to copy the core disk onto ’disk’ and press enter to continue. From a 2nd cmd.exe do a :Step 5
Time to copy the beta disk onto the ’disk’ and press enter to continue. From the 2nd cmd.exe do a:Step 6
Now this part of the disk is corrupt (its on all the beta 3.3 disks) so we have to select some scsi driver in order to get to the ATAPI. I choose #2Step 7
Now we can proceed to the ATAPIStep 8Step 9Step 10
NeXTSTEP kernel booting...
NeXTSTEP kernel booting...Step 12
I like the advanced install. So lets go with #2Step 13
We are going to install on the #1 (and only) diskStep 14
Since the ne2000 currently doesnt work, I want a small partition to copy files on & off the vm.Step 15
Lets go with 32 megabytesStep 16
Ok looks good!Step 17Step 18
Now the disk is being partitioned & formatted. This could take a minute.Step 19
files are being copied.Step 20
Ok we are done here. Press enterStep 21
Now at this point you can kill the emulator. For the sake of being ’easy’ lets copy the core file back ontop of the ’disk’Now we re-launch qemu as follows:Step 22
Again lets boot verboseStep 23Step 24
copy the beta onto disk.Step 25Step 26
copy core onto disk
There may be an ’error’ that it cannot mount the floppy.. Don’t worry, just hit ok and try again and it’ll work.
Click on the monitor (from the top). We are going to install the VGA driver for now.
Select the Default VGA Adapter (v3.30) and press the ’Add’ button
Now sleect the mouse button (from the top), then select the ’PS/2-Style Mouse (v3.30)’. Click the remove button.
Now select the audio icon (the speaker icon from the top) and lets add the ’Sound Blaster 16 (v3.30)’ driver.
You will get a warning about an irq conflict, you can close it. (this is why we changed the sb16.c file from irq 5 (the busmouse) to irq7.
Select IRQ 7.
Now press the Done button.
press enter.(enter)
At this point NeXTSTEP 3.3 is installed. Pressing enter will sync the disk & reboot the VM. Next you select your keyboard, and you are good to go.
Hopefully this has helped someone out there!Final Notes
After you install update #3 the keyboard will not work right.. you need to specify a keymap.
Here is how I like to run Qemu 0.9.0 for NeXTSTEPRetrieved from ’http://gunkies.org/w/index.php?title=Installing_NeXTSTEP_on_Qemu&oldid=20916’A company I worked for sent me along with two senior colleagues to a shop which was showing both the NeXT cube and the NeXTStep system ported on x86 hardware, and the experience was totally worth the early morning (late night) wake up plus following 5 hours train trip; it was about 1993 or 1994. The cube was absolutely gorgeous looking, and being then myself an Amiga fan its Motorola CPU to me was something to be proud of.The demonstration wasn’t the usual smoke and mirrors wrapped in corporate speech: the guy wrote some code on the cube and built a small GUI program to show the development system and libraries, then he took the same code, copied it to a x86 machine nearby running the ported OS and built it to obtain the same program. Just wow! Back then running different hardware and CPU architectures meant sort of living on a different planet, and we just saw someone building a space bridge between two distant planets, making software development much easier.
We eventually got back with some promo material and the idea that we were did indeed experience a milestone in the IT development, but the price tag was something a very small company could not invest for research alone, so they abandoned the idea.
About WindowMaker: I loved it and used it extensively both at home and work in the early 2k. In one project I had to build the simplest possible user interface for roughly 50 remote stations hundreds of kilometers away where the users were mostly completely new to computers, therefore the risk of clogging the support seat with panic calls was really high.Luckily WindowMaker and its kiosk mode came to rescue: I built a really basic desktop screen in which the user could not alter the system in any way, providing buttons for simple tasks like running a browser, fetch or send mail using a client, ask for remote support, print documents we sent through scp or mail attachments, shutdown/reboot etc.An interesting challenge was easing the support login since all those terminals had dynamic IP, and we simply couldn’t ask to the operators to start a reverse ssh from their side, but thanks to some Ruby scripts in the background, each remote machine would obtain and send its public IP and some more information to the local server in which a Ruby+Glade GTK app would add them to a list, so that the support operator would click on a station name and the ssh to that machine would open in seconds.In the end it worked so well that the support colleague spent most of her time twiddling thumbs.
