This will typically +be called either "rom01" (131072 bytes) or "rom03" (262144 bytes), +and will often be distributed in zip files called apple2g1.zip and +apple2gs.zip (for use with MESS). This package can optionally include +the ROM file. To do this, place the ROM image in the slackbuild +directory before running the script. The image will be installed +as /usr/share/kegs/rom03 (or rom01). If you do not include the ROM +in the package, you will need to manually copy the rom03 image to +/usr/share/kegs/rom03 before the emulator will work properly. + +Audio +===== + +kegs uses OSS for audio. To get sound working, you have 3 options: + +1. Run kegs as "aoss xkegs", or launch it from your desktop's application + menu (which does the same thing). + +2. Enable ALSA OSS emulation: + # chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.alsa-oss + # /etc/rc.d/rc.alsa-oss + + However, this may interfere with other applications' use of the + sound card. + +3. If you already use OSSv4 (audio/oss from slackbuilds.org), kegs + should be able to use it. It's not recommended to switch to OSSv4 + just to get audio working in kegs, though. + +GS/OS Disk Images +================= + +If you intend to run Apple's GS/OS in the emulator, you will need +macutils to extract the .sea.bin archives. Download disk image(s) from +one of the sites listed below and then run e.g.: + +$ macunpack -d Disk_2_of_7-System.Disk.sea.bin +$ mv Disk_2_of_7-System.Disk.data system_disk.dsk + +Mount system_disk.dsk on slot 5 using the config menu within xkegs, +set slot 5 as the default startup device in the IIgs control panel, +and you should be booting into the IIgs native GUI environment. + +The GS/OS disk images used to be hosted on Apple's site, but have been +removed. They can be found on various archive sites, including: + +ftp://ftp.muleslow.net/apple2/ +http://mirrors.apple2.org.za/ftp.info.apple.com/Apple_IIGS_System_6.0.1/ -- cgit v1.2.3
