Short: EmuTOS - Amiga version Author: EmuTOS team Uploader: polluks+aminet sdf lonestar org (Stefan Haubenthal) Type: misc/emu Version: 1.2 Architecture: other URL: https://emutos.sourceforge.io EmuTOS - Amiga floppy version This EmuTOS version is a boot floppy for Amiga. emutos.adf - English Amiga boot floppy emutos-vampire.adf - Same floppy, optimized for Vampire V2 accelerators The following optional files are also supplied: emuicon.rsc - contains additional icons for the desktop emuicon.def - definition file for the above Note that the emuicon.rsc file format differs from deskicon.rsc used by later versions of the Atari TOS desktop. EmuTOS runs on Amiga hardware, and behaves just like on Atari computers. This is not an Atari emulator. It is a simple and clean operating system, which allows running clean Atari programs. No Atari hardware is emulated, and the full Amiga hardware is available. The Atari OS calls have been implemented using the Amiga hardware. To be clear: - Atari programs using only the OS will work fine - Atari programs using the hardware (games, demos...) will not work AmigaOS is only used to load EmuTOS into RAM. Then EmuTOS completely takes over the machine, and AmigaOS is no longer available until reboot. These floppies are the easiest way to test EmuTOS on real hardware. Floppy emulators such as HxC and Gotek are supported, and even recommended. Supported Amiga hardware features: - Any CPU from 68000 to 68060, including Apollo 68080 - Chip RAM - All kinds of Fast RAM - Monochrome video modes up to 640x512 interlaced - Keyboard - Mouse - A600/A1200 IDE interface (including Vampire) - Battery backed up clock (MSM6242B and RF5C01A) - Floppy drives - Vampire V2/V4 SD Card Supported Atari features: - ST-RAM - ST-High video mode - Keyboard - Mouse - IDE hard disk (with EmuTOS internal driver) - XBIOS hardware clock - Alt-RAM - ST floppy disks (only 9 sectors, 720 KB, read-only) Unsupported Atari features: - Color video modes - Sound Special features of emutos-vampire.adf: - Optimized for 68040 (best option for Apollo 68080) - EmuTOS itself runs in FastRAM, for best performance These floppy images have been built using: make amigaflop make amigaflopvampire This release has been built on Linux Mint (a Ubuntu derivative), using Vincent Rivière's GCC 4.6.4 cross-compiler. The custom tools used in the build process were built with native GCC 4.8.4. The source package and other binary packages are available at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/emutos/files/emutos/1.2/ An online manual is available at the following URL: https://emutos.github.io/manual/ The extras directory (if provided) contains: (1) one or more alternate desktop icon sets, which you can use to replace the builtin ones. You can use a standard resource editor to see what the replacement icons look like. To use a replacement set, move or rename the existing emuicon.rsc & emuicon.def files in the root directory, then copy the files containing the desired icons to the root, and rename them to emuicon.rsc/emuicon.def. (2) a sample mouse cursor set in a resource (emucurs.rsc/emucurs.def). This set is the same as the builtin ones, but you can use it as a basis to create your own mouse cursors. To use a replacement set, copy the files containing the desired mouse cursors to the root, and rename them to emucurs.rsc/emucurs.def. For further information on the above, see doc/emudesk.txt.
