Final of my Aros 68k distribution

[OlafS3]

I have worked in the last months on a new distribution based on Aros 68k and added a new background pictures, icons, software, libraries and much more.

More info:

I will also offer addon-packs:
CLI, Games and a special Grunch-database

Thank you to the tester.

It is planned to be integrated in Aros-distributions and will also be available as download.

Nice to know, and hope it will evolve into the next Amiga OS version (at least for 68k).

Superb!

Thank you for your great work with this!
Cannot wait to test it on real amiga

BUG: The archive contains the "Executive" Trojan which hacks into the OS and damages it causing various problems and lockups with multitasking programs.

nice work
I hope that this will be main OS on Natami

that looks impressive! Well done!

I am a bit troubled though by what Chaoslord mentioned about a trojan being included?! Is this accurate?

(No way to test now myself, too busy with other things)

Great work.
Good question though.

It's a patch that is ill-advised for multitiasking on Amiga since it allows lower-priority tasks to be promoted to higher priority.  That, in turn, allows things that should never be overruled by a lower-priority task to be overruled, etc.  Calling it a trojan may be an exaggeration but either way, you should never run it.

Did not check but I guess he just doesn't like the Executive program. Nothing a simple change of startup can solve.

greets,
Staf.

Edit: SamuraiCrow beat me to it.

Great news. Great work. Another knife in the chest of the amiga grave robbers!

Thank you very much! Exactly what was my expectation out of AROS 68k development - "building OS 3.9+" an updated 68k experience for e.g. Natami, FPGA Aracade AND all UAE users

a late april joke...

it is this:
http://aminet.net/package/util/misc/Executive

TCS is only a "executive" hater. It is a entry in user-startup so simple to remove...

[ChaosLord]

I have explained to you that this Executive is a Trojan many times yet u continue to intentionally spread Trojans onto people's computers.

Yes I do hate Executive, as I hate ALL TROJANS.

STOP SPREADING TROJANS!

No separation of kernel and userspace, then?  Is this just a priority scheduler with a basic "aging" mechanism?

[Argo]

I don't know. I've used Executive and never had issue with it.
