yup i did it...

so now how can i get morphos :)

hope to have my efika by monday...

i am planning to run opensuse as well...

You have to wait ( hopefully ) till March or April 2008. Then you can pay for & run MorphOS 2.0

MorphOS 1.4.5, latest version out there, does not run on Efika.

Enjoy!

yeah... i was reading that...

i guess suse with no gui and raw x-windows for a while... :D

later,
Chris

I wouldn't bet on MorphOS2 coming out by March. I seriously doubt if it will be finished by end of this year, if ever.

This is the reason why many, including myself are holding out before spending hard earned money on efika!

i am installing opensuse 10.3 on my ibook, so i can see how well it runs

Quote:

I would save the EFIKA for AROS which is nearly ready. I'd say by March. (I know it's more than two weeks )

Where can I get an efika WITH CASE in EU? Thanks!

I am ordering an Efika as well.

OpenSuse is supported on it but with the low RAM, kde and Gnome will drag.

I donate low end PCs for use in inner city schools and the set up I use is:

Rox Filer (use --p option for a desktop)
Oroboros wm
And its fast, even on Pentium I/133 mhz

I intend to put this set up on the Efika until Morph OS comes out.

I am buying mine from here:

Just need a hard drive.

that is where i got mine... UPS forgot to put it on the truck, so i gotta wait till tomorrow...

Thanks, I sent them an email :)

well i got it... but i put an nvidia graphics card in it and it goes to a black screen when booting the inst32 file... and the only other card i have is the xgi... and i dont have a dvi to vga adapter yet...

open firmware didn't recognize my osx partition :(

Chris

Your running OSX on an Efika??
DVI to VGA adapters are dirt cheap. I have around four of them.

havent gotten osx running yet, but i am still optimistic :D

i have the HD out of my ibook g3... i was just seeing if the open firmware would read the file stucture... alas it didnt...

got suse installed today... but i gotta find a better driver for my video card... 16 colors sux... :)

Chris

I went ahead and ordered an Efika... I assume once MOS2 is out (if it is) they would sell out pretty quickly, so might as well get hold of one while I still can.

The plan? I will get a cheapo 2.5"HDD, an ATI video card, install everything, make a nice case, and let it sit gather dust unitl MOS2 is finally out.

MOS 2 and AROS would be strong enough to make me buy an Efika... Linux
can run in other platforms as well. But it owuld be cool if OSX could
run on Efika as well :D
