Pegasos doesnt and (probably) never will run AmigaOS. Pegasos runs MorphOS which happens to have AmigaOS API compatibility layer.


According to BBRV in a post here on Amiga.org last year, in a thread regarding a port of OS4 to Cell, he said

Better to port OS4 to the Pegasos (it is already done!).


As well as the above statement there are many rumours that OS4 has been adapted by certain enterprising Pegasos owners to run on Pegasos II - the point is that we're not allowed to.

But then the OS3.9 EULA specifically prohibits running it on non-Amiga branded hardware, yet thousands of UAE users are running it quite happily on their PC's.  And OS X is not licensed to be run on anything except Apple Macs, but that doesn't stop people (including AmigaOne owners) from running it on their machines under MOL.

IMO if you spend your money to purchase a copy of OS4 and want to run it on your Pegasos II, and you have the knowledge and time to make it happen, or you know someone who does, that's your prerogative.
