OpenStep 4.2 Driver Thread
If people who have done this don't mind, could we consolidate the tips and tricks for using OpenStep 4.2 (the final version Apple distributed as they geared up for Rhapsody) in Parallels? I for one can't even get the correct magic combination of settings for it to see my hard disk and CD-ROM drive, so I can't even get to things like patchsets, VESA drivers, and hacking my configuration file to use different network emulation. As I discover things, I'll post here.

Please ensure anything here is tested with the final released version of Parallels Desktop for the Mac.

1) What special settings should be made to the virtual environment? OS Type, etc.
2) What drivers should be chosen from the floppy disk for the hard drive and CD-ROM?
3) What special considerations need to be made for full video support? Are native resolutions (1440x900 on my MacBook Pro) supported?
4) What needs to be done to enable the network adapter?
5) What needs to be done to configure networking (/etc/hostconfig)?

Thanks,

- Joshua Ochs
