You probably know what Basilisk II is, but if not, a quick summary: Basilisk II (manual) is an open source emulator of 68k-based Macintosh computers that support 32bit memory (therefore you can NOT boot System 6 under Basilisk, but you can setup System 6 on a secondary drive image, see Section 5) that runs on Windows, OS X and Linux (also works on some other platforms). Running Basilisk II on a modern system will allow you to make changes to the minimal disk images I have on this site before you copy them on to their matching floppy disk (or floppyEMU), Iomega Zip Disk, CD-ROM, or SCSI2SD SD card etc.
Because Basilisk II is already well documented on sites like Emaculation, I’m only going to describe the basics of how to setup Basilisk II so you can use it to add or remove files from the disk images available to download on my site, to help you setup your 68k Macintosh.
1. Download and install Basilisk II
https://celestialsoul378.weebly.com/where-do-itunes-movies-download.html. The latest versions for Windows, OS X and Linux can be found on the E-Maculation Forum.
For Windows, you need a combinations of downloads: the BasiliskII.exe file from the 2015 build and the complete Basilisk II application from the 2010 build located on the internet archive and the GTK-runtime environment.
- Create a destination folder on your system that you will install Basilisk II in.
- Unzip the 2010 build in to the installation folder you created (Figure 1)
- Download the latest windows build from the E-Maculation Forum
- Unzip the latest build of
BasiliskII.exe
(2015-02-26) in to the same installation folder (replacing the 2010 version of BasiliskII.exe) (Figure 2) - Download the GTK-runtime environment
- run the
gtk+-2.10.13-setup.exe
file
Basilisk II is an emulator which emulates Apple Macintosh computers based on the Motorola 68000 series. The software is cross-platform and can be used on a variety of operating systems. Christian Bauer (developer of a Mac 68k emulator ShapeShifter for Amiga) released the first version of Basilisk II in March 1999.New emulator should be highly portable across several. (If a box pops up saying that: 'Basilisk II: The CD-ROM driver file 'C:WINDOWSsystem32driverscdenable.sys' is missing.' , ignore it and click on OK). Basilisk II will now run. If another box (sounds) inside the Mac OS 8.1 pops up, press OK. Click on the Apple menu icon on the far top left Control panels Monitors select Colors. Eschalon: Book III – Full Version with Demo area Windows Macintosh Linux Local Local Local Eschalon: Book II – Full Version with Demo area Windows Macintosh Linux Local GamersHell Local GamersHell Local GamersHell – Eschalon: Book I – Read More. Once you've installed Basilisk II and copied the ROM image file over, you're ready to create a hard drive image, configure Basilisk II, and install the Mac OS from a bootable CD or set of floppies. (Don't expect to be able to download a Mac OS on your PC and install it from there. Basilisk II is an Open Source 68k Macintosh emulator. That is, it enables you to run 68k MacOS software on you computer, even if you are using a different operating system.
Basilisk II is now installed, but not quite ready to run.
2. Download and select a ROM file
To run Basilisk II you’ll need a file containing a copy of the ROM from the 68k Macintosh System you want to emulate. Luckily these ROM files are now available on the internet archive and can be used for personal/research purposes. I personally use the Macintosh LCIII bios from my physical system, but you can also find the Macintosh LCIII bios on the internet archive.
If you want to use a bios other than the LCIII bios, you need to make sure that the bios supports 32bit mode, the bios for any Macintosh System released after System 7 should be fine.
I suggest putting the ROM file in to the same installation folder as the Basilisk II application but it’s up to you.
3. Create or download a hard drive “image file”
Disk images are essentially binary (bit for bit) copies of the contents of a storage device or medium such as your Hard Drive, removable drive, memory card or CD-ROM (ISO files).
If you are hoping to use Basilisk II to help you set up a real Macintosh system you’ll want to read a separate blog entry I’ve written that explains what drive images are and how to create them, the same blog entry also has links to image files I’ve already created with the minimal version of System 7.5.5 already installed along with some other useful utilities.
Note: you must select one of the images with System 7.5.5 as the bootable System. Basilisk II will NOT boot System 6.0.8.
4. Configure Basilisk II
Basilisk II includes a program called
BasiliskIIGUI.exe
that can be used to configure Basilisk II, run BasiliskIIGUI.exe
now.For most users you’ll only have to worry about 2 of the tabs shown in the Basilisk II Settings windows:
- The Memory/Misc Tab (Figure 3) where you specify:
- Set the RAM size for your emulated Macintosh System, I suggest 32MB as a good size for most needs.
- Set your Mac Model ID. Select Mac IIci. Note the bios you’ve download does NOT have to match the Mac Model ID. As I mentioned I personally use the LCIII Bios with no issues.
- Set the location of the ROM file you plan to use
- The Volume Tab (Figure 4) where you specify the location of the file(s) representing the hard drive(s) for your emulated system:
- Use the Add button to select one or more Hard Drive image files as your virtual drives. The first on the list will be the “boot” drive by default.
- I select you enable the “My Computer” icon option, this will drastically simplify moving files on to your Hard Drive image files
- Press the Start Button to begin using Basilisk II (Figure 5).

5. Using Basilisk II to edit image files
You can read my blog entry on how to upgrade from the minimal version of System 7.5.5. to full version of System 7.5.5 for a more detailed example of how to use Basilisk II to add new applications to your virtual hard drive image files.
The method I use to install the System upgrade files can be used to install any Macintosh Application you download.
If you want to install System 6, I suggest creating a secondary drive file to install System 6 or download one of my System 6.0.8 image files to use as your secondary drive. You can then use Basilisk II to copy files on to this secondary drive, once your done updating it, you can write this secondary drive file back to your physical device to use on your real mac.

Notes
Executor lets you only run Macintosh applications, but it isn't a real emulator. I think BasiliskII is much better, because it is real emulator. You need to have a ROM (something like BIOS in PCs) from true Mac. Also you need real system for Mac, but when you launch it you have real Macintosh on PC.
It emulates a real Mac with MC68030/68040 processor (and maybe MC68LC040) with any amount of RAM. The CD-ROM support is like in a real Mac.

How to use
After downloading this WinRAR archive, extract it using your favourite extration application. You will have some files in a directory. The main file is basiliskii.exe, which is the emulator main executable. If you want to run Macintosh system software, launch this application. You will see System 7.0 loading screen and then desktop should appear. There are two files on desktop (hard drive and recycler) and a menu bar. Open the hard drive to show its contents by double-clicking it.
