Five Year Anniversary - MorphOS 1.4.5 Free Edition for PowerUP Available
24th August, 2005 - The MorphOS development team would like to celebrate the five year anniversary of the first ever publically available MorphOS release by announcing the immediate availability of MorphOS 1.4.5 Free Edition for PowerUP accelerators by phase5 & DCE.

Five Year Anniversary - MorphOS 1.4.5 for PowerUP


By releasing the latest end user version of MorphOS for PowerPC-equipped Commodore A1200, A3000 and A4000 computers, the OS is brought back to its origins. Prior to creating versions for the bPlan PEGASOS and various embedded hardware platforms, development started out on the forementioned computers by Commodore Business Machines and resulted in a first beta version to be released in August 2000.

For information about supported hardware configurations, installation instructions and the actual download location, please visit:
http://powerup.morphos-team.net


Please note that the MorphOS Development Team is unable to provide direct end user support for this specific version of MorphOS. If you encounter any problems, please use the PowerUP forum on MorphZone to ask for help and support.

We sincerely hope you enjoy the Free Edition of MorphOS 1.4.5 and would like to welcome you soon as regulars on a MorphOS community website.


Thank you for your interest,
The MorphOS Development Team

    My nerves! Beeing a MorphOS User is like a ride on a Rolercoaster. Yesterday Krashan`s decission to freeze/stopp his projects (Although i understand the reason behind, it still is really sad) And now the MorphOS Free Editon for Power Up!
    Well, atleast this gets never boring ;)

    I guess it's time to thank all people that made the release possible!

    Thanks should go to:

    - tokai - for his work on the registration system and the website

    - Krashan - for doing the network implementation for the registration utility

    - JoBBo - for creating the website, his cool graphics and new MUI config and the Clara skin

    - laire - for making my life a misery and providing the rom files

    - Chain|Q - for testing the betas and the reg system

    - stefkos - for testing the betas

    - CISC - for his legal texts

    - bigfoot - for providing us with the servers and bandwidth

    - henes - for morphos-team.net subdomains

    - all others I forgot to mention

    I really hope you will enjoy this release!

    Jacek

    Targhan: Well Indeed ;) One addition for start may be, that really only the mentioned Hardware is working, CGX V 4.0 driver for example won`t work, different like the 0.4 release where those drivers worked through emulation. (Thanks to jacadcaps for the Information)
    Anyway, this simply roxx :)
    If you allready had brought back the Image Section I could have shared a celebration Screenshot from a new Skin (which took me ages now to complete ;) ) which of course will be now released as a "homage" to this release ;)

    That is unbelievable.
    I never believed in the release of MOS 1.4.x
    to the PowerUP users.
    This is so great and amazing.

    Have a look at the Screenshot in the News.
    I guess as a special contribution there is a Clara Mui Skin, as well as a new Intuition Skin named "Rainy blue" which is as far as I can see a variation from Tokai`s Skin.

    Excuse my ignorance!

    The file boot/startup isn't an AmigaOS executable so how do you get the boot loader to work?

    I am truely surprised and amazed! Thanks a lot for this. I will not forget to use the paypal button...

    I hope my Delfina & X-surf will work (defina worked with 0.4, X-Surf not). At least my old A1200 will enjoy a 2nd spring after it was retired and went to the cellar after my Peg purchase in 2002.

    And to all those nay-sayers (see the discussions of the last days) I recommend the German saying:

    "Immer wenn du denkst es geht nicht mehr, kommt von irgendwo ein Lichtlein her."
