Use OpenStep's Ni.snd in OS X
Authored by: poenn on Aug 04, '08 10:28:26AM

@diamondsw:

Running the latest available release of OpenStep is relatively easy in VMware Fusion. I don't know about Parallels Desktop.

I believe (it's been a while) that I used Other/FreeBSD as the OS type. What's really important is to choose the correct disk controller driver or the installation will simply hang. I believe I used one of the EISA or SCSI ones.

After you get it installed you only need to install the VESA graphics driver for color and higher resolutions. There are also free OpenStep VMware mouse and audio drivers I found through Google. They make your experience much more pleasant... :-)
