Anyone with AteoBUS tried AOS4 for classic?
« on: December 23, 2007, 02:38:13 PM »
Hello.

This rare hardware for A1200 is not even mentionned in the OS4 compatibility list or the threads about 0S4.

As it is itself compatible with Blizzard PPC, although i currently prefer to use it with an Apollo 1260, i need to know if someone tried the new OS with this bus and its boards (Pixel64 for VGA and AteoNet for network), before considering upgrade.

Thanks.

Yes but i am concerned for the "Startateobus" resident file wich requires a reboot. Would this be compatible with OS4 boot procedure?

You must have forgotten, because it can't work without a reboot: maybe you haven't noticed it, but startateobus cause a flasing multicolor screen at startup, then reboot itself.

I doubt the Ateobus will work as there aren't any OS4 Drivers for it, I think as a general rule, if it's not in the OS4 compatibility list it hasn't been tested, so it may or may not work, Though if the Ateobus does work I shall eat my hat sir :)

Unfortunately i don't think any developper of AOS4 had the chance to test this bus as it is a rather uncommon piece of hardware.
