I have to go with Bill here.

Before we can make any statements regarding 0S 4 support for the SharkPPC, we first need the hardware and the associated documentation.

We have neither at the moment nor any indication from Elbox when we can expect to receive it.

Now it's conceivable that Elbox came up with some kind of WarpOS compatibility software but if they did, I'm not aware of it.

Frankly, I don't know.

Sticking a PPC card into a PCI slot which then takes over the entire system is not a trivial affaire.

Especially not on the A1200 version of the Mediator where all kinds of work-arounds are required to get it to work through an 8MB window.

We really would first need to see the documentation and the hardware before we can make any statements about this.
