I got it to work, slight error on my part with the startup-sequence.

I'll hold back on commenting for now.

Nooo.. please at least tell us, how the overall feel differs or not with AOS4 beta? Which one is smoother with basic desktop usage?

Unless Ryu's got a CSPPC version of OS4 it wouldn't be a fair comparison anyway...

@Ryu

You big tease you....

Would this be your first ever usage of MorphOS?

Be very cool to hear your opinions...it always took me a long time on a first install (whether MOS or OS3.9) to get up to usablity (various classes, programs etc.)

From what I saw of a year old beta of OS4 on tekmage's 4000PPC, it looked cool but it's a long time since I ran MOS 0.4+ on my CSPPC.

Wish I had my 4000PPC tower to try it....had the money set aside to buy both Classic MOS and Classic OS4 at one point - sadly those days are long gone

@CodeSmith

Why wouldnt it?

Oh and as it happens I have a CSPPC A4000 and a BPPC A1200. I happened to test MOS on my A1200, which I betatest OS4 on most of the time

Nope this isnt the first time Ive used MorphOS. I last had a good play with a MOS machine at the Benelux show back in err 2003. Back then my opinion was one of "well this is all very nice, but err... it doesnt feel right".

I would love to comment on how it feels, but so far I've been mucking about with resetlevels and delays for about two hours and I've yet to see it boot into Ambient.
After it resets it just does nothing at all. I did get an older version going on the same hardware, so I guess it's just a question of hitting the "magic combo".
Right now I'm rather fed up with rebooting though

well then it's just 3 years late. ok. doesn't really matter, does it?
we had 2 great news today (mos & khtml), now i want the jedis to tell us: "oh well, next week we start to press the cd-roms and in september we start to ship os4" ;)

WOW!

This really is something that I would not have expected to happen in the era of BBRV & RalphS.

( at the same time it is "good" timing to take away some AOS4 sales? )

Aggressive post, flamebait, first there is no indication per se of a problem with the person you mentioned, second it is not an excuse to go off topic. Take it up with kimmok in private message.

Are you joking? Not with this limited hardware support.

Moderated for upping the ante

@Thread

Sadly i have only a 060 on my classic, if i had a BlizzardPPC i could give it a try, my classic is collecting dust.

This is a good release. Many old amigans have been abandoned
when both MorphOS and AmigaOS4 set for newer platforms. They
were promised both MOS and OS4 on their classic PPC Amigas and
got only very old MOS beta, or waiting for years (OS4).

Have a good time with MorphOS!

Test this thread that seems to be corrupt.

Whis is a really good release.. With 3D support and Quake3.. AND the biggest news of all.. the new kHTML browser, Morphos would be the only and the best choice in Amiga computing.. now we are running mos on the next best plaform to

Mr Calibra: Yeah!

I was all ready about to download it... I can finally give MorphOS a try and compare it with AmigaOS 4. After all, there's no way my Amiga can't run it.. right? Right?

Oh dear. Hardware requirements basically seem to say you need a G-Rex (which I can't use and don't own) or a CVPPC (which I sold 6 months or so ago). I have a fully working Voodoo III in my Prometheus but they only support two graphics cards solutions?

Guess I won't be trying MorphOS after all.. back to developing AmigaOS 4 for me....

I imagine I'm not the only one in this boat, too.... hopefully the MOS team will realise that by restricting drivers they're largely restricting their own developer base.

get the classic hardware or buy a pegasos. It's your choice. Be happy to download it for free of charge.. Since AmigaOS4 will cost $$$ ...

Spirantho:
What do you expect from free Amiga software?
Besides, Elbox (Mediator) have never been very
open towards other companies and software..

exactly.. they didn't like openpci
