Gah! Won't someone please actually release an Amigalike OS for my G4 Mac mini instead of waving them under my nose.
I really hope this is going to be an official target hardware for MOS2. _________________

Streaming worked fine with VLC.
So, should we call this Morphana ? _________________ Moderators are people too. |

I think I would kill for that 
Note that it's running on a typical 1.4Ghz Mac (PowerMac 10,1 instead of 10,2) and it's not as restricted as OS4
BTW, I still remember the stupid comments aimed at me "noooo you can't port AmigaOS4 on a Mac because hardware is super-special, we don't have docs and that's impossible" xDDD
I guess "Moana" and this are just in my imagination then :P Last edited by Crumb on 16-Jan-2008 at 10:54 AM.

I haven't followed Morphos that much but does it run classic Amiga software?
Is Morphos still available?
Which machines does it run on?
Finally, the butterly logo is better than AROS's cat, just my opinion... _________________ Everything we say will be incorrectly interpreted and used against us. |

MorphOS is very compatible to AmigaOS . It supports most 3.x and much 2.x software *including* WarpOS, PowerUp and W3D. Even many OS4 apps are running using an API wrapper called OS4Emu. I even run some old 1.x software on my Pegasos which I never expected they would run. Currently MOS 1.4.5 is publically available for PowerUp and Pegasos 1 &2. MorphOS 2.0 (scheduled for around Eastern) will initially support the Pegasos 1&2 and Efika1. Later support for teh Mac Mini is now announced, also the PowerUp boards will probalby get supported. The 5121 powered devices (Efika2, LimeOS) alre laso an option. Last edited by Zylesea on 16-Jan-2008 at 12:48 PM.

Hmmmm, this start to actually look interesting, since AInc. is totally uncapable to do absolutly NOTHING! No HW nor anything else either.... I love my OS4 but when my HW dies or something??? What then... maybe MOS or AROS..

This is very cool. 
If it winds up making it being released, I might actually be interested in picking up a mini.
Too bad OS4 idiocy (licensing) stopped Moana from being a real released (and finished) product.
