OS4EMU 1.1 for MorphOS has been released. Now much more OS4 native software works.

Itix has released a first version of OS4emu, an AmigaOS4 emulator which makes it possible to run OS4 programs on MorphOS.

The Genesi-owned/sponsored Morphos.net website (Google cache) has been taken down and instead, a page, that reminds us a lot of the Amiga situation up to a few months ago, is described there. It claims that no new version of MorphOS will be released until payments are made to developers. The latest version of MorphOS is almost a year old already, while releases used to happen every few months in the past, usually.

In the August 2004 IBM Power Architecture Community Newsletter Genesi's Sven Luther and Bill Buck describe the Avalanche Desktop Reference Management Platform where Genesi is currently working on together with Avalanche.

Here is a step by step guide: Installing MorphOS is what this guide is all about. The MorphOS CD which comes with your PegasosII have some errors on it and can confuse you so hopefully this guide can help clearing up a few things.

A new product arises from Genesi: The Open Desktop Workstation is based upon the Genesi Pegasos, a CHRP based motherboard. Integrating selected Open Firmware and running multiple (15+) operating systems, the Workstation is an extremely efficient, very expandable hardware solution for personal and business computer requirements. Both IBM and Motorola feature the new product in their pages.

Nicholas Blachford just had a presentation posted to MorphZone. It's aimed for ex-Amiga users and people who know nothing about MorphOS so it doesn't go into technical details but lets you know the capabilities of the system and what it's all about. There's also .zip and .lha versions for download.

According to MorphOS-News the Pegasos-II System starts shipping to the end users.

Genesi today announced a new, PowerPC-based, modular MicroATX mainboard release that brings flexibility and efficient processing power to performance-intensive applications, including desktops, workstations, servers, and communications products. Read the rest of the press release.

This page is dedicated to providing information on running Linux on the Pegasos. ISO images included. We would love to see a better Yellow Dog Linux support and also Darwin on Pegasos.
