Using

Mini vMac 3.2.3


What next, after reading the Getting Started with Mini vMac page :

Read the documentation

The Control page, about the user interface, and the emulated Hardware reference are rather dense, but have a lot of useful information.

Install System Software

The System 6.0.8 installer disk used in the Getting Started page is not intended to be used as your normal boot disk. Instead you should run the installer to install the system software on a blank disk. You can get a new blank disk image from the “Blanks” archive. (You will need the second installer disk for this, “System Additions”, which is contained in “SSW_6.0.8-1.4MB_Disk2of2.sea.bin”.)

Other system versions are also available from Apple’s older software page. Anything there up to 7.5.5 works on a Macintosh Plus, and in Mini vMac.

Get Macintosh Software

The Software page has links to many currently available programs that work on a Macintosh Plus. To use this software in Mini vMac, you will first need to get it into a disk image. The Disk Image page describes how to do this.

Getting Help

If you have a question about using Mini vMac, it is usually quickest to check the Mini vMac documentation and the Mini vMac FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions). If that doesn't help you can ask on one of the various internet forums related to Mini vMac.
