… The boot process is nearly identical to PearPC, with the same quirks and patterns. However, I was soon greeted by a familiar screen when rebooting: The “no” symbol boot quirk with PearPC, and subsequentally CherryOS as well. 😂 Dealing with disk-images when setting up PearPC, I mean “CherryOS.” I'm pretty sure that this is the only original code that they've written (besides the wrapper and installer), but I may be mistaken. One of the hassles with PearPC was creating the disk-images required to format with “ Disk Utility” before installing Mac OS X, but CherryOS has found a way to automate this and create them for you. But, how is the software overall, otherwise? Obvious PearPC similaritiesīeing a Mac/Unix guy, I tried installing it on a spare PC out of curiosity. You can tell that it's VB6 (a beginner's IDE for Windows) by the various OCX files and other Visual Basic dependencies that it installs. The project clearly lifts source-code from the open-source project PearPC and wraps it in a VB6 ( Visual Basic) application to make it more commercial and similar to Virtual PC. A CherryOS trial version was released today, and the software is still absolute crap.
