OS4 ready on A1200 BPPC

This is the linux version of the driver, it needs the device environment for AOS to be built first. Well, let Elbox do the support for their hw if they wanted to... (I think it won't happen, as they are struggling with their Coldfire-based expansion for classic, which is basically competing product with OS4.)

Side note: I don't know if the emulated FastATA driver works on OS4 or not, I don't have FastATA (anymore).

I couldn't wait so I bought an A1200 BPPC tower with OS4.0 beta installed

I've not had much chance to give it a thorough test yet but on the surface it appears very much like the A1 version but obviously running slower on the PPC enhanced classic hardware compared to an A1. However, IMHO it appears to run much the same as the classic MorphOS PowerUP version. This is obviously my subjective opinion based on running applications like IBrowse 2.3 etc.

Was that Darrens a1200 ?

@ outcast
unless trevor says who's it is that bought it, then you cant say for definate.
However RYU, of intuitionbase did sell his a1200 PPC machine recently.
