The AmigaOne was presented in Leeuwarden today. Unfortunately, only openfirmware bios was shown. Photos of the presentation at http://www.amigascene.nl/nieuws/nieuws.htm .
At around 15.00 Computer City brought the AmigaOne motherboard. It is the first sample of the 1.0a board. Because the motherboard was different from the one that Eyetech had, it was not possible to use the Linux from the old board. Because there was no more time for a new installation, we had to do only with the openfirmware bios. There are installed a IBM processor (without cooling!), 128MB, Soundblaster soundcard and a ATi Radeon 7500 AGP.
It now waits for OS4.

The AmigaOne in Leeuwarden (photos) : Comment 10 of 122 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Roald Oosterhoff on 25-May-2002 20:26 GMT | In reply to Comment 9 (Ole-Egil Hvitmyren): Same wrong conclusions as on amiga.org so here's a paste of my message on amiga.org:
"Right, I just got home after being in Leeuwarden. Some ppl seem to think that it is a 500MHz G3. Thats total bollox. Ron van Herk of Computer City received the board at noon today and at ~1500 hrs he was in Leeuwarden. So he didn't have _any_ time at all to mess around with the bios settings let alone install Linux. So I guess the number of PCI slots/CPU speed/whatever needs to be set correctly by hand or something (it IS STILL a dev board remember).
The CPU really is 600MHz, it really has 4 PCI slots, it really has onboard sound/ethernet." |
