- I have a 68040 accelerated Mac. My problem is that I have no floating point
- exception handling for 68882 emulation. I have earlier asked here about this
- but the only answer I got was that I have to have system 7.01 which is the
- only system that handles 68040 correct. Now I have installed system 7.01
- but I still get "Bad F-Line Instruction" when I start programs that execute
- floating point instructions. This may mean that the floating point exception
- handling is done in the Quadra PROMs.
-
- Does anybody know where I can get a program that installs this exception
- handling? I would also be glad if I just got a hint about where I can
- find a program that can install the exception table in a proper way in
- the Mac environment, because I have the 68882 emulation routines already.
- I do, however, know nothing about programming in the Mac environment.
