This program doe not work on memory expansions.

Re: Mark Swift's Website

Hi, I have been playing around with AROS x86 on a Asus EeePC 1000H Netbook. The AROS operating system runs on the bare metal, so is very quick. It is an Amiga compatible operating system, but requires an emulator to run M68K Amiga software, but the games are very quick. Boots from any Device setup i...

Re: Problems with/after ROM replacement, vDrive and Exapanderam

Hi,

The problem maybd related to the broken pin on the Minerva.

Do you have the 2 resistors on top of the 8302? This improves the microdrive reliabiliy.

A simple answer, because ED can't convert CR/LF line endings to LF, which was the point of Andrew's proposal. OK, good pint well made... But if the program was written in the em...
