Are there any possibility to have backward software compatability in future?

No, not directly. There needs to be something like:

Bounty #7: UAE integration (basic/initial)

However, this is easier said than done... The problem here is that the emulated apps are "disconnected" from rest of the system. Also, such construct would require owning legal AmigaOS (or AROS m68k build would need to improve to fully compatible level so it could be used for the emulated m68k Kickstart ROM etc).

@dammy

BTW, Remus should prove very useful when developing the AROS Kickstart ROM. Each module could be replaced one by one as the thing is progressing. At first only the simplest modules would be replaced, but eventually everything would be AROS.
