BasiliskII_prefs in /home/user/
basiliskii.desktop in /usr/share/applications/hildon

Running on N800 with OS2007- Is OS2008 necessary for the newer versions?
Seeing as I compiled it against OS2008's libhildon, probably so. Though you can probably download the sources and compile from OS2007 - I don't think I did anything OS-specific.

Personally, I'd recommend upgrading to OS2008

And another bit of useful info:
Emulating a 68030 seems to be the fastest, from benchmarks.

TechTool Pro 2.03r1:

Code:
'040
? kWhetstones (won't run)
1725.84 dhrystones
? cycles (won't run)
228.0 cycles
? sieves (won't run)
1965.64 milliseconds for sort

'030
41.88 KWhetstones/sec
3527.66 dhrystones/sec
432.38 cycles
20.95 sieves 
1002ms for sort

'030 with FPU
? kWhetstones (won't run)
1693.95 dhrystones/sec
232.0 cycles
? sieves
1983.61 ms

'020
41.84 kWhetstones/sec
3706.80 dhrystones/sec
429.48 cycles
20.55 sieves
947.53 ms for sort

'000
41.97 kWhetstones/sec
3656.90 Dhrystones/sec
445.61 cycles/sec
21.11 executions/sec
950.88 ms for sort
Conclusions: Use '030 (cpu 3) and turn off the fpu (fpu false). '040 can't have the FPU turned off (I must hack it up to emulate a LC040 at some point). '020 is slightly faster, but won't run as much. Mac OS 8 can be made to work on an 030 machine with a bit or resediting, and the end result will be faster. Not much requires a FPU.
