    It also doesn't work for me, on a G3 Pegasos2 with OF 1.2 and Radeon 9250.

    Hi,

    Just for completeness:

    It did work on both my Pegs:

    OF 1.2; G4; Radeon 9200LE (the big one) and Radeon 9250SE (the small
    one).

    yeah, the requirements tells you need g4 processor.
    also doesnt ork on 8500, only 92xx..

    anyway, does it have any value for a dekstop user or any benefits to run it on the pegasos?

    The "ramdisk" that is available has rather limited value.

    It boots onto a desktop (1024x768x16) which includes
    - shell (with some commands)
    - cpu-meter
    - DOOM (no sound here)
    - Snake
    - Life-Simulation
    - Fly (sort of Quix gfx-demo)
    - player (which could display gif-anims and gif/png pictures I found in the ramdisk)

    So, I only was able to play with the upper mentioned programs - couldn't find any way to connect to the "outside-world" (TCP/IP stack, mounting of HDs).

    It's a nice "look-at", but lacks anything to work with.

    BTW: On both my Pegs typeing "mem" in the shell only recognized 256MByte (where one has 512 and the other one 1024 MByte RAM).
