> But is there such a thing as a free download of beos? BeOS R5 PE - runs from a 500MB virtual partition - http://bebits.com/app/2680 BeOS MAX - installs to a hard disk, a new version is in BETA - http://bebits.com/app/3892
MAX is your best bet. BeOS is quite picky with hardware though. Mainly because it hasn't been commercially developed since 1999/2000. If something doesn't work, it's either because it's not supported, there's some kind of IRQ conflict, you're motherboard is pretending to be "Plug and play" (turn it off if you have the option) or your missing a driver. In the latter case, a quick look on BeBits usually finds whether or not you're in luck. I'd be willing to help someone get the build environment set-up. I can offer advice etc. I don't have an intel BeOS machine at the moment, so I can't help with compilation. All my Be boxes (Mac and BeBox) are PowerPC. As porting FPC to BeOS for PowerPC is impossible, I'll not dwell on that ;-) M _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
