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.

Posted by Stefan Burström on 26-May-2002 22:34 GMT | In reply to Comment 26 (Turrican): >We're end of may, no OS 4, and an AmigaOne with only Linux PPC and an >openfirmware with no AGP, only one memory slot (you'll see), no internal cache >support etc...
Check out http://home-3.tiscali.nl/%7Eamiga/AmigaONE250402/DSC00009.JPG
and you'll see the 2 slots.
And if the OpenFirmware doesn't support AGP, how does it then display the
boot screen. Besides, who cares about OpenFirmware when AOS4.0 can handle
the AGP port and turn on the internal caches?
