Roadshow 68K Revisitied
« on: November 21, 2010, 07:03:13 PM »
Olaf Barthel has just sent me a demo version of his roadshow 68K and i just tested it on the A4000 mediator with the FastEthernet.device and all is working well.I didn't get enough demo run time to get any speed figures.  Install is relatively simple and only takes about 5 mins in a text editor and 3 files to get up and running. It comes with a nice install script that copies all the needed files where they need to be without any fuss.Hopefully he will announce the release and it will be up for sale any day now!

Does it support working DHCP? That's the only thing that really annoys me about the Genesis stack from OS3.9.

well I don't want to be accused of being naive (stubborn for sure) but I think if Olaf Barthel attaches his name to anything you can be rest assured it is of a good enough standard. Or I am missing something here!

People like to see numbers :)

Roadshow works very well with my m68k cnet.device PCMCIA NIC on OS4. Certainly feels faster than it does with AmiTCP4 on 3.x, but that could be subjective. I should do some proper tests at some point.

I think that for the time being, Roadshow sounds really good for Amigas, but then I am kind of wondering what will happen to this comercial, closed source tcp-ip stack with no gui, next year, if Aros-m68k gets kickstart bounty II finished, and we may then actually have an open source tcp-ip stack with gui on 68k.

Nothing prevents anyone from compiling the AROS IP stack for OS3.x today already :)

I didnt know that. So it will probably be out, in the wild, sooner than I thought.
