Do yo uhave a ROM image installed? Mac emulators require an image of
the Mac's bootrom (similar to Kickstart on an Amiga)- these can only be
acquired by ripping the image from a real mac (utilites for doing this
are supplied with Shapeshifter and Fusion).
Assuming you do, did you rename the CUCD bootfile to MSHardFile0, and
putting it in the MSHF: assign? (MSHF: needs to be assigned for Fusion
to work- very annoying if you use PCx as well, as it uses the same
assign and the same file names for its Hard Files...)
Assuming "yes", did you set Fusion up to use the DiskFile by selecting
the file in the Hard Disks section of Fusion config?
If you've done both of these, then all I cna think of is that you're
using the wrong hardfile off the CUCD- there were 4 (Erm, Boot, Games,
Apps & Internet, I think)- only the "Boot" one actually contains any
bootable system stuff...
You can use all 4 of themn with Fusion by following the "create a new
hard file" method I described in my last mail, but copying over
MSHardFile1/2/3 instead of MSHardFile0.
