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 Coolio on 19-Jun-2002 18:42 GMT | In reply to Comment 22 (The simple truth): So now your an idiot with caps. Feeling proud are we?
>MorphOS has something to show and software being developed for it, Amiga OS 4 >is just vapor and always will be!
Until MorphOS v1.0 comes out, MorphOS is vapour too.
>Have you noticed how everyone who wrote good software for Amiga went to >MorphOS?
No I didn't actually. I noticed that they took one look at this stupid situation and said "Goodbye!", then went off to port thier stuff to linux or something.
>There's a reason why! They know Amiga Inc. are usurpers of the almighty >Amiga!!!
>Okaaaaaaay, I hope you are taking your pills.
I DON'T NEED any pills! I'm high on LIFE, because I use MorphOS!!
>Amiga Inc. couldn't open source the AmigaOS because of patent issues,
ROFL! If YOU believe this then I have some prime real estate in SWAMP COUNTRY for you!! LOL!
>simple legal fact. Why MorphOS? Surely if the OS was opensourced we
>would all compile our own free versions and make our own >mprovements? There'd be no need to *buy* MorphOS.
YES THERE WOULD! The hard work and dedication of Ralph and others would NOT be included if it were OPEN SOURCE!!! There would be NO advantage to just having the AmigaOS by itself! It NEEDS to be run under MorphOS!!!!!! |
