Also, we might as well let the thread know that MorphOS runs on the A1 too. We have one of "their" boards and it works! That should settle the issue of "write once, publish anywhere"... Plus, we are happy to sell a Pegasos to Mr. Hermans and his team or anyone else. Ben, you can have one from the next production and you do not even have to be a Betatester...;)

Morphos runs on AmigaOne too. : Comment 56 of 160 | ANN.lu |
Posted by cOrpse on 04-Sep-2002 16:27 GMT | In reply to Comment 54 (takemehomegrandma): MorphOS and Pegasos is fully compatible with each other.
I would hope so.
"AmigaInc and Hyperion is free to extend the market by "porting" their OS to the Pegasos. Bplan has no objections or conditions at all, as everyone knows."
Ah so what was the reason their request for a board wasn't processed ?
"It will be clear to everyone when the "final" A1 (the one with the ROM lock) comes out, and MorphOS no longer will run on that board, that AmigaInc and Eyetech has reached their goal - absolute power over what the users runs on their purchased hardware."
The rom lock doesn't stop other OS's running on the board , its to stop amigaOs running on unlicensed hardware , just the same as the dongle with 3DStudio max stops people running unlicensed copies of that.
I'm sure Amiga will support any PPC hardware ... But I don't think they will support people running un-paid for copies of it on any hardware.
Also hardware locking isn't new ... Microsoft do it .. but I haven't felt the affects of this ;) |
