KEGS (Kent's Emulated GS) KEGS is an Apple IIgs emulator for Mac OS X, Linux, and Win32. The Apple IIgs was the most powerful computer in the Apple II line. It first was sold in 1986. An Apple IIgs has the capability to run almost all Apple II, Apple IIe, and Apple IIc programs. KEGS requires a ROM image dumped from an Apple IIgs. 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. Optional dependency: If you intend to run Apple's GS/OS in the emulator, you will need macutils to extract the .sea.bin archives from Apple's website. Download disk image(s) from http://www.info.apple.com/support/oldersoftwarelist.html 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.
