MOTD 26/Jul/2004 : Comment 72 of 82 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Sammy Nordström on 03-Aug-2004 09:41 GMT | In reply to Comment 71 (brotheris): >You said that "OS have to run natively on the hardware in order to operate it"
>and I provided few examples where AmigaOS running on Amithlon controls
>hardware directly, so by your own definition it is native ;-)
I meant native as in the opposite to emulated. Take an AmigaOS3.9 CD (not Amithlon), stick into your PC CDROM, and see if it will run. You see, without the aid of that Linux kernel and the 68k emulator, the AmigaOS wouldn't be able to run on the PC. That's what seperates AmigaOS from a real PC operating system and that's why the PC is not an Amiga computer. It's as simple as that and there is no point in discussing this any further.
>>What has that got to do with anything?

>A lot. So if you use AmigaOS on Amithlon you will say that you use Linux ?
I would say that I'm using Amithlon. Your point beeing? |
