    will have a look on UAE on linux some days, as i like AmiAthlon for what it did, a shame that licences killed work on it, could have being nice to have UAE

    on a1 hardware for the debin install, closed source make developments slower or

    maybe not even happend

    ;)

    i have beginned to make a library of ADF files, until now i have around 50000 files, room for extendsion :-)

    Hi Wilfred,

    It's all about getting to develope A1 or hardware to host Amiga OS4. EyeTech doesn't want to for various reasons. The claim -- short supply of PPC cpu's -- doesn't holdup anymore.

    I just downloaded a update for Amiga OS4! I'm one in a million, huh! :)

    same here, maybe AROS team wake up and find fidonet and the amiga echo ?

    AROS = Amiga Replacement OS

    i don't know realy, i just hope hardware wonders join fidonet and amiga

    Or has it all died out...

    until then its time for UAE to make something, and have it on aminet

    yes it is, try searching http://www.google.com/ :-)

    I don't remember that...?

    a1200 is a lightwigth a4000
    a500 do as a a600, but a500 plus is realy just an a600 in hardware where the a500 ports is still the samme, where its changed on a600 to be like the a1200 is

    and a500 plus have no pcmcia card slot, a600 can only have 2M chip mem, and if you want more you need a new computer :/

    a600 and a1200 can have mem extensions on pcmcia cardslots, but you can max have 4M internel mem in the 8M autoconfig range so, problem is that the cardslot is in the autoconfig memory range, for realy no reason :/(

    I doubt the amiga floppies I have saved somewhere in a box, are
    still readable... It must be more than 5 years since they have seen
    some daylight! ;

    its true that floppys not last long, but i bet thay can be if its good floppys and you did not just put them around the monitor where there is manigtic things, even c64 floppys holds very good :-)

    Indeed! Can Amiga floppies be red on a PC?

    yes if you are lucky to have a drive that can run 150 RPM :-)

    Hi Benny!


    Nope :/ Troika's project -- Ami'05 --fizzled. And the ACK endevore -- PowerVixxen -- was put on hold. So, why attempts to get hardware for Amiga

    let me see some fidonet runs from A1 :-)

    The A1 is currently not online. Since moving, I haven't worked out the new
    ISP problems...

    + Origin: Eastpointe BBS (1:120/228)

    I was just telling David Veatch, our wonderful REMOTE SYSOP, that I'm
    nearby a computer center lab that has WindowsXP on Dells to do work. I use
    a 256MB USB drive -- SanDisk to keep the AmigaOne tuned into the world. I
    need to study some Roadshow on the A1 to setup DSLnetworking via AT&T
    and Yahoo! :)

    As for dialup via modem, I don't have my linux anymore. So, that's one reason for not doing that. I'm not aware of any TERM program working with the A1
    and a FAX modem to call Eastpointe BBS, but I'll check it out. Let you know what happens.

    if you have dvd drive on A1, make a knoppix 5.0.x dvd live, and boot that when needed, just need to have linux for that cpu type, the nice thing about this dvd is it does NOT need to be installed, it will run live anyware if the pc can

    boot from a dvd drive, hope it exists for A1 hardware olso, basicly just say mac :-)

    i have it here for the x86, and its pakked up to 4GB of good linux world that works anywhere i go

    even openoffice is there, come on microsoft you can do better ? :-)

    if you have dvd drive on A1, make a knoppix 5.0.x dvd live, and boot that
    when
    needed, just need to have linux for that cpu type, the nice thing about this dvd is it does NOT need to be installed, it will run live anyware if the pc
    can
    boot from a dvd drive, hope it exists for A1 hardware olso, basicly just say mac :-)

    A nice idea, but not in the Amiga World yet! ApplePPC is not A1PPC. I hear Knoppix works with PC OK.

    I rather checkout my AmigaOS4 stuff! =:o
    Linux's Minicom worked fine with my serial port, so why not just OS4 and a terminal program. Anyway it needs to tested before entering the area of ISPs and internet dialup anyway; DSL or not.! :/
