These two videos demonstrate the Catweasel MK4 PCI controller running with the new drivers written by Ian Gledhill and supported by iMica funds. Please remember to watch parts two as it has another surprise at the end.

Cool.  AROS never really caught my interest, but this looks promising.  Maybe I'll give it a try again some day.

What you guys need now, is seamless UAE integration.  Start the program directly without having to go though an emulator, which needs to boot, load workbench, etc. which ruins the "magic".

Hmm, there is an idea ;-)

Oh what sorry we started that already.

That's not quite what I meant.  This seems to be an API wrapper for 68k binaries.

Interestingly, I'm working on the exact same thing as emumiga, but I'm writing it in C++/Qt which will allow you to run Amiga binaries anywhere.  This is an idea I came up with about 5 years ago, but only started writing last week.  I'm currently working on asl.library and intuition.library, screenshot of C:RequestFile here: http://i.imgur.com/Lwekp.png

Why not get in touch with Moggen and do it together.

These are good projects for Aros.
