Re: COS newbie questions
Thank you! The window advice worked. The WiFi is disabled in COS and after searching around, I don't think I can enable it through COS. I am 99% certain that it's a Mac problem. I have read that there are WiFi issues with Linux and Mac. It looks like I need to install a Broadcom update of some kind....

COS newbie questions
Hi everyone, Is there a guide in COS? I found a few resources, but I couldn't find answers to basic questions. 1. Is there a way to automatically search for WiFi and just put in the password, or do I need to configure the WiFi? If it's the latter, is there a guide on how to do that? 2. How do I clos...

Re: MacBook Pro 2011 - Successful COS installation - Triple boot system
Personally, I am blown away by the emulator list and thought you have put into that, and every other area of the OS. Even the installation notes were so well explained. I was really surprised. I've been tinkering with emulators for years, more from a nostalgia perspective. My friend is on a whole di...

Re: MacBook Pro 2011 - Successful COS installation - Triple boot system
Thank you. I'm not technical, so I don't know what a Grub bootloader is. Holding down the alt key while powering up the MacBook brings up a plain screen with icons for any bootable partitions, so for me, that is the Mac (High Sierra), Windows 11, and an EFI boot icon. I just select the one I want an...

MacBook Pro 2011 - Successful COS installation - Triple boot system
Hi everyone, Just in case anyone is interested, I have successfully installed COS on a MacBook Pro 2011. The laptop is a 13-inch, late 2011, 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB memory, 1 TB SATA3 SSD hard drive. It has four partitions: 1. macOS High Sierra v. 10.13.6 (32-bit) 2. Windows 11 (64-bit) bootcam...

Re: Commodore OS and VirtualBox (issue?)
Just for reference, I successfully installed Commodore OS in Windows 11 on a Bootcamped MacBook Pro 2011 Intel machine. I had to use Failsafe. It runs well and I am very grateful for this OS. Thank you. My next experiment will be to install it directly onto a dedicated Commodore partitioned drive on...

Re: Commodore OS and VirtualBox (issue?)
Aha! Thank you, that explains it!
I'll try it on the Intel Mac instead, in both Mac OS and Windows 11. Hopefully that will work. If not, I'll have to save up for the C64.
Thankyou for taking the time to respond.
Wishing you every success!

Re: Commodore OS and VirtualBox (issue?)
Hi everyone, I hope it's OK to post my issue in this thread since it's related to Virtualbox. I have a MacBook Pro M2 (2023) running Sonoma OS. I've installed VirtualBox and tried to follow the instructions in the YouTube video in this thread. The UEFI Shell runs and this is what I see: UEFI Interac...
