Re: Help with MacMAME (Tony Schountz)

Unfortunately, same problem.

Now I'm trying XRoar and I now get the expected "Extended Color Basic..."
startup green screen and I seem to be able to attach my OS9 boot disk
(original from Radio Shack). But when I type "DOS" I get "?SN ERROR"
followed by "OK". Perhaps the disk image is not attaching? It's named
OS9BOOT.DSK and is 161k in size, so I am sure it's the original
out-of-the-box 35 track, single sided floppy image.
