@spirantho

Have you tried AROS on your emulated/bridged x86 systems?

I decided to try it myself... Booting the AROS floppy disk in PCTask4... so far so good... though somewhat slow :-)

-Edit- Booting using the VGA, Slow ATA settings... something seems to go wrong when jumping out of supervisor mode though :-/

-Edit2- The problem seems to be with PCTasks lack(?) of FPU emualtion...

-Edit3- PCTask doesn't recognise the 040 FPU... :-(
