In reply to Comment 5 (koan):
Well, the way I see it someone would have to do the actual porting (no, you can't run the same Linux on the boards, and MOS doesn't AFAIK run on an AmigaOne or a Teron with U-Boot. AFAIK being the operative word). For this someone to do the porting, someone would have to initiate some sort of cooperation so documentation etc would be available. The way I see it it can't be that god damn hard for Genesi to port MOS to the AmigaOne, unless they have limited resources as well (as well as other companies have, I mean). Hyperion, however, are tied up in producing AOS4 for CybPPC, AmigaOne and then possibly BPPC. After that comes a couple of new motherboards from Eyetech, which might need some new drivers, and also a few new games (Hyperion really want to get back to porting games by now). So they aren't gonna do it just yet. Unless someone coughs up some dough to make it worthwhile.

So I'm asking:
Do you think it would be worthwhile to produce an OS4 Pegasos version, given the fact (as presented by Genesi supporters at least) that only 600 boards have been produced?
Do you think it would be worthwhile to produce a MOS AmigaOne version, given that MOS is not sold, but given out for free? Where's the money in that? Seems to me they're not even supporting the Cyberstorm/Blizzard PPC solutions any more either. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.
