Thanks for the hint on the "Binary"-Section. I wil try that out later. I guess that was the culprit.
So, some more questions from me:
How compatible is AROS in relation to the other A-OS'es or old code? I think i don't completely get this yet.
Example:
Let' say i take some old C-code, that adheres to the rules made by any old Amiga OS (3.1 or before), can i recompile that code and get it to run on AROS for example.
Yes. In most cases a recompile should work fine.
I tried that with
Memleak and it was really just a recompile and worked out of the Box!
But there may be some problems with different endianess in some cases. For example if a Program saves it Data in a binary Format, or if it reads or write directly to some registers, not using the system API.
And how compatible would this be to Morphos or AOS4?
You would need to recompile the Program.
Then, regarding this: http://ringlord.com/people/walrus/amiga/java.html
it seems there was already a working JVM on the Amiga platform. Wouldn't it been possible to get this to run on AROS somehow (so, thats where my questions about compatibilities from above come from).
You need to ask this question to the author.
I think getting Java to run on AROS would mean a lot of programs for the OS. And lots of programs cannot be a bad thing.

I think so too.
