PowerBook G4 MorphOS sneak preview
« on: November 07, 2009, 03:45:24 PM »
Here's a video I shot some time ago. It shows my PowerBook G4 system booting up the MorphOS 3.0 (development branch):

PowerBook-G4-MorphOS-3-sneak-preview.mp4

Please note that this isn't official confirmation of any kind. A lot of support infrastructure for laptop usage is still missing, as well as some drivers.

PS. Sorry for the poor video quality.
PPS. We don't need any beta testers for the PowerBook version for now.

Shot in the dark here, but might a PowerBook G4 be able to run current MorphOS 2.6 if it were used as a "desktop"?

No. MorphOS 2.6 only works on the HW specified.

Wow, I can't believe it's almost been 2 years since this was posted.

Well 18 months, or 1.5 years.
