Interesting. I had heard that there will be a AmigaOS4 port but I wasn't
aware that they were waiting for the port to be released. The boards itself
are pretty nice though.
Indeed. Actually the X5000 seems out of stock everywhere, and A-Eon is
quite silent these days. But if not them, then no one, at this point, I'd
say.
I agree.
Dear mailing list subscribers,
Sorry because of our missing responses in this mailing list. We usually
read this list but sometimes we have a lot of work and it is not
possible to response to any emails.
I am Christian Zigotzky and I am a member of the A-EON Technology Linux
support team and additionally I am AmigaOS 4.1 beta tester. I joined the
A-EON Technology Linux support team in 2013. We provide Linux kernel and
distribution support for all motherboards manufactured by A-EON. [1]
All A-EON motherboards were designed for AmigaOS 4.1 [2]. This means,
AmigaOS 4.1 is the main operating system on our NG Amigas. Additionally
we offer Linux as a second operating system for our NG Amigas.
We aren't really silent these days. [3]
In the Linux support team we are working on some projects currently. We
are creating a new Linux distribution called 'MATE PowerPC Remix 2017'
because Ubuntu has dropped the support for PowerPC. Additionally we are
integrating support for our AmigaOne X1000 to the official Linux kernel
currently. Every day, we work hard to offer a good Linux support for our
motherboards but our main work is to improve AmigaOS 4.1.
AmigaOS 4.1 has overtaken Linux PPC on our systems. It supports hardware
3D acceleration for modern Radeon graphics cards and it is developed for
PowerPC directly. This means it is not just a port. It is directly
designed for PowerPC systems. It is very fast and reliable. The Odyssey
web browser is the fastest web browser on our NG Amigas. It is faster
than all Linux web browsers and you can also browse on web sites like
Facebook, YouTube, and Google+ without any problems.
Sometimes our customers use Linux PPC because of software which do not
exist on Amiga OS4.1. With Linux, our customers have the possibility to
replace their main PC or Mac.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our team.
Best regards,
Christian Zigotzky
