So did anyone try FS-UAE and qemu modules compiled with KVM (kernel-based virtual machine) support yet? That should make it possible to run AmigaOS4 Classic run on PowerPC systems without much CPU emulation.

I had read about standalone qemu with early sam460ex and kvm but had not heard about that being included in the fs UAE program. Do you have a link to that?

Sure.

The qemu plugin for FS-UAE on the download page is only for x86/x86-64, but that should be a matter of building, AFAIK qemu also exists for PowerPC.

Thanks for your response. I've never seen one of these emulators work. Are they really OK, or do they have some operating limitation?

They are very OK for these kinds of things. Emulators gives you _much_ more freedom and less limitations than any real Amiga hardware, the only hick-up I struggle with, is a little latency when playing certain games. For system friendly productivity software (which is what it sounds like you are doing), WinUAE and FS-UAE are excellent.

And you are an infamous PowerPC fetishist :laughing:
