Can the DS boot System 6? - UPDATED with video
Yes it can…
It’s not exactly speedy emulation due to the lack of optimization at this point, but it’s faster than I thought it would be.

So when will a beta be available? Obvously you can’t distribute the OS, but a tutorial or something would be nice.
Keep up the good work.

You lazy bastard! or should i say …crazy bastard. This will go down in history.

Great and if you can do a version for cf,sd cards (supercard,m3,gbamp,etc) that would be fantastic.
I cannot wait for a release.

Wow, impressive ! I’m sure it’s the kind of thing that nobody was expecting for !
July 14th, 2006 at 6:01 am
Double thumps up for that ^^

Just did a small test, the emulator runs at 13-28fps depending on what your doing.

[…] The not-so-lazy tinkerer called Lazyone is really hacking away at the DS and opening up homebrew possibilities with two very neat parlor tricks: (1) a completely unstable Apple System 6 from the yesteryears of Apple before 16K color happened (at the risk of dating myself - remember monochrome greenscreen monitors? I HATED those!)… and (2) running the game that started the FPS onslaught, Wolfenstein 3D. Pretty snazzy. But can it make Hot Coffee? Learn more and download the hack at DrunkenCoder’s house. […]

actually, systems up to 7.5 are available from apple for free. i’ll see if i can find the link and post it. i’m using 7.1 on the minivmac i have installed on my desktop and it works just fine. ram may be an issue on the DS however.
July 14th, 2006 at 2:45 pm
Actually, it works fine with 2Mb of ram

So, how do you handle the different resolution of the DS screen? It looks like you made some way to scroll around the screen. Can’t wait for a release!
July 14th, 2006 at 3:41 pm
The screen is unscaled ( any scaling would look like crap so I’m not doing it ) and is scrolled when you use the virtual mouse which is centered to the DS screen.

Impressive! We’ll be able to enjoy System’s Twilight on the go
Keep on with the good work!

[…] Oh my word, my friends! Look at this article you must! It is a written piece that shows screenshots of what appears to be System 6 running under emulation on a Nintendo DS! There is a video, but not yet have I watched it. […]

[…] De acuerdo al siguiente video, si sería posible bootear el sistema 6 en la DS, eso sí, muy lento y con un espacio bastante reducido. […]

[…] The author said: “It is running a little slower than normal because it’s being run in a DS emulator but currently it runs between 13-25fps on hardware and theres loads of room for improvement.” […]
