- First of all: remember to read the original documentation provided in the archive

-
- Special characteristic of the MorphOS port
-
- o You need to install the vga.font that is provided in this archive
- o Bochs can be started in a workbench window with: "bochs amigawin".
- Currently, only textmode is supported if the amigawin mode is used on an 8 bit workbench screen.
- Higher depths work even in graphics mode.
- o Without the amigawin argument, a screenmode requester will be opened.
- Please pick a screenmode that will fit all resolutions that you expect to run.
- The screenmode is static at the moment. In amigawin mode, the window
- will change size depending on the pc resolution.
- o To access the floppy drives directly from Bochs you need a unix-style device handler
- like dev-handler or the one coming with xfs.
- Please read the relevant documentation on how to setup access to an
- amiga device so Bochs can access it as a file.
- o Diskfiles can be mounted on the Amiga side with ie xfs.
- Harddiskfiles should also work but I have had no success with that. Tell me if you know how to do it.
- o Diskfiles can be created with the makehardfile tool that is included in the archive
- o PS/2 mouse emulation is fully implemented and working.
- You can turn it on/off with LSHIFT-CONTROL-LCOMMAND.
- Turning on the pc mouse emulation removes the native amiga pointer.
- Mouse emulation can be on or off at startup depending on your mouse setting in .bochsrc
- o The ips setting in .bochsrc should be about 300000 for a BlizzardPPC/200 and 500000-600000 a for CStormPPC.
- o CDROM support is implemented. There is no way to switch to another CD once Bochs has started.
- This limitation is not specific to Amiga Bochs but I will try to fix it in a future version
- o SB16, serial, parallel and networking emulations are not yet implemented
