amidevcpp.funpic.de as well as over
www.commodoreweb.com/~amidev/ and amidevcpp.amiga-world.de/.
On the main page there is also a preinstalled "AROS Max" enviroment for
Windows. The packet contains of Qemu as well as preinstalled harddrive and ISO-images
and is mainly meant as test enviroment for AROS programs which were developed
with AmiDevCpp. But it may be also interesting for people who want to
experiment with AROS or simply want to play DOOM again.
For the data transfer with the Windows site the
UltraISO is very useful.

Afa: AROS for AmigaOS 3.92.1
A new update is availlable for AfA(AROS for AmigaOS). Beside improving the Fasticons-Function and the picture.datatype the new AROS-Version of Mulitview is now included.
Details of the Changes:
- Because of Fasticons programs like Amistart or the oscilloscope of the Eagle-Player, which need an exclusive pin, now work due to sufficient free pins.
- Programs like Thumb, that were not supporting the picture.datatype, should work now - if any more problems should occur feedback is resquested.
- In directory c: multiview_afa is now included; this might be lacking of i.e. a fullscreen mode or saving the standard prefenrences, but using the AROS-picture.datatype the images can be enlarged and adjusted to windowsize.

Pegasos: Linux live CD Niktarix 0.4
With Niktarix Nick Niktaris created another Linux live CD for Pegasos (ODW) (Screenshots).
Components from Knoppix, Kanotix and Debian Sarge were used here; contained are in addition to Kernel 2.6.11 among other things KDE 3.3.2, UnionFS, Mozilla/Firefox, Open Office and GIMP.
UnionFS, which takes some time while booting, makes it possible to work like you have booted from the hard disk instead of from a CD - in this way it is possible for instance to install or remove .deb files.
Open firmware call:
boot cd niktarix root=/dev/ram rw init=linuxrc
