I wasn't too fond of it when I first got it, but having installed a newer Ambient and other tweaks to the system (finally figured out how deficons work earlier this week) I'm enjoying it quite a lot. It's far more stable than my OS4 machine, very fast, very compatible, very Amiga.

@ Edpon

Ooo, nice to hear about dates for MOS. Anyway, your questions (you'll get pretty much identical answers for OS4 as well)

1. Software: Yes, if it's system friendly. Old games need UAE. Disks will not work - there are no drivers for the Catweasel and the onboard floppy controller is a PC style one. If you make ADFs of your old disks you can use the images with something like diskimage.device, however.

2. Amiga feel: Absolutely. I switch between MOS and OS3.9 without having to switch operating mindsets like I do when switching between MOS and Linux. Taking the title out of consideration, you'll never know the difference.

Algor/Romulus is no problem to load MOS/OS4. Simply disable it pressing right or left mouse button. Be sure that you are using a modern bootmodule and a modern luciferin.


I don't have to dissable the flash of my Algor when booting into MorphOS. Seems only OS4 has problems with that for whatever reason.

MOS chokes if I don't disable my Algor. What modules and bootloader are you using?

You don't. Not yet, at least. Development hasn't finished.
