In a thread reply into Yahoo Groups http://groups.yahoo.com/group/amigaone/message/17027 Eyetech answers regarding these three arguments: 1)AmigaONE Shipment Delay, 2)first users must sign NDA and 3)Installation of PPC SUSE Linux on AmigaONE realized by experts who receive the charge (by the list of the developers of AmigaONE) to set up an easy installable distribution of PPC SUSE Linux.

Quoting:
--------
Anyone who ordered a developer board - dealer or end user - was subscribed to a closed list under NDA.
Several people on this list are on the closed a1g3dev list have boards and some - but not all - of them have boards.
[..]
Some people on the list have far more experience than others when it comes to installing linux.
Since the dev group voted to initially standardise on SuSE PPC Linux - and the A1 boards are NOT the same as the Teron CX boards (which run Turbo Linux) - the group decided to let a select few of the real experts to make an easily installable distribution of SuSE Linux PPC and UAE-PPC first.
The remaining dev boards have already been manufactured but will not be available until this SuSE/UAE release is finalised.
Hyperion are making good progress with sorting out the OS4 boot process...
-------------
End Quoting
I have seen it on Czech Amiga News
Bye,
Raffaele

Posted by Kjetil on 19-Jun-2002 17:29 GMT | In reply to Comment 19 (Coolio): If AmigaOS4.0 fails, there are no releases way we are not going MorphOS,
---
As long as nothing has been released there is no point fussing about it,
watt is the big deal have you invested in the MorphOS,
---
>YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! MorphOS is the only way the Amiga will live on!
>LET ME EMPHASIS THIS, IT'S THE ONLY WAY! Commodore won't open source
>Workbench and do you know why? BECAUSE THEY KNOW that MorphOS depends
>on it right now, they're deliberately delaying MorphOS so they can
>fragment the dieing market further!!!! The law suits only prove Amiga Inc guilt!
Watt Commodore they are dead,
AInc owns the source code and this is way they not going to relies them,
they have an product of there own, they simply don't wont to pushed a side,
You know they invested heavily on the technology, way should they give the
competitors an free ticket in the market, do rely thing for one second morphos
will share there source code with AmigaInc, Way are they not using the Amiga Name,
they are simply not interested to even support the Amiga brand,
by offering some money for it.
Watt is MorphOS it's an Kickstart 3.1 clone, with some morphos PPC binaries of there Owen
this is way Open Source Amiga programs are recompiled for MorphOS,
and this is way there are MorphOS versions of 68k programs.
AmigaOS4.0 goes beyond this and adds new functions, we my be waiting longer for some it,
how ever i think it will be reworded in the end, if i had allot of money i by Pegasus and AOne. |
