How to install Skyscape apps in Classic for the Palm Pre
Skyscape has put up instructions (PDF) on how to install their apps in MotionApp’s Classic, the Palm OS emulator for WebOS.
Skyscape is warning that the MotionApps Classic ROM Updater tool available from their FAQ to install Palm fles DOES NOT work with Skyscape files.
The Classic compatible Skyscape apps require a SkyscapePreClassic-Installer.prc
The PALM PRE drive will have a folder “ClassicApps”. Simply put the prc and pdb fles you have downloaded into this folder. The example here shows Harriet Lane and Labs 360 being installed. The SkyscapePreClassic-Installer.prc is needed only once – as you add resources you will only need the prc fle and the pdb fles which belong to that resource.
