- : Unanswered FAQs
- : """""""""""""""
-
- First off: these are not FAQ's, they are merely Q's. FAQ means
- Frequently Asked Questions. Now you may have asked *yourself* these
- questions a hundred times, but that doesn't count ;)
-
- : -*68000 Emulation*-
- : FAQ: Is there any way to disable software 680000 emulation on the mac and
- : allow it to be done on hardware?
-
- This question is answered in the docs that come with uae. No it is not
- possible, since the emulator needs to synchronize the processor and
- custom chip emulations, which is not possible when you run the code
- natively.
-
- : -*Kernal*-
- : FAQ: Would making a 'kernal' for UAE be possible?
- : FAQ: What would be the problems of this approach?
-
- As long as the functions don't do any custom-chip bashing, this could
- be done. It's already done for the unix-filesystem driver, I think.
-
- : FAQ: would this be good method of speeding up emulation?
-
- No, the custom chip emulation is slowest.
-
- : -*Adding emulated kikstart functions*-
- : FAQ: Is there an easy way to add my own emulated kickstart functions to the
- : emulator?
-
- See the sourcecode, there are some functions alowing bootloaders to work
- without a kernel rom image.
-
- : FAQ: Do you think i am wasting my time with this faq?
-
- Yes and no: you should probably ask the author of uae about all this.
