AEROS for Raspberry Pi public version available

[nicholas]

Hi,

JanusUAE is so far only available for x86 branch.
You can run PUAE or UAE4all.
I would like to announce a qemu usermode bounty as one of my next moves.
If we make qemu usermode available for AROS we could use it to run AROS x86/ARM/PPC/m68k binaries on one of the other branches. This way some people made Wine (an old <0.7 Version) running on ARM based mobiles a few years ago. Also this would mean seamless integration of AmigaOS apps.

In theory, at least. Alternatively there is EMUMIGA. But the qemu idea opens the door to ppc and ARM.

The QEMU code looks very complicated to port to Amigaoid operating systems.  To me it does anyway, maybe someone with actual talent could manage it.

This appears to be much simpler to port.

Is anyone with the skills to do it reading this thread able to shed more light on the possibility for we mere mortals?

Sure it may be easier but it offers only "full system emulation".

Qemu allows to run "binaries" only. This is possible with "user mode emulation".

Well, it is only possible on unix like OS so far. I know one person who can port it. But he is not able to patch and enhance it.

As told this one may be a good alternative:

I've just had a brief look at the code and docs for GXEmul and I think it could be made to offer the same features as usermode QEMU without too many changes.

It has 68k emulation too which could come in very handy.

This is possibly a nice option too.
