#Treble OS Amiga ?
4 messages in this thread
Has anyone managed to get 1 Amiga set up to run ADOS, Windows, Amax and to
use Amiga and Messy Dos and Mac CD ROMS yet ? Is this likely to be possible
?

Russ, I do have my Xetec CD Rom running on the XT Bridgeboard, the Chinon
PC controller, using MSDOS 3.3. I have the drive hooked through an A/B
switchbox so I can switch between the IBM/Amiga sides easily. I haven't
purchased Amax yet, but don't see any reason why it wouldn't work, and plan
on trying it in the near future. All I would need is to get a copy of the
Chinon driver for the Mac, and possibly the Amax driver for the 3000, and I
should be all set. I asked Xetec about this and they pretty much said the
same thing. So when I get Amax and the software, I'll let you know what
happens.

John,
I appreciate your postings on treble OS Amiga's. Thanks for taking the
point on this. I wonder if the AT Once board would have the same ability to
address the chinon controller as the C= BB's ? I would really like to have
a 386 BB (I am spoiled from my machines at work) in my Amiga. I wonder when
someone will deliver on that one? Keep us posted!

Russ, well if what I read in a recent European magazine is true, you can
now get a board for the ATonce that goes between the AT and one of the IBM
slots in the 2000. This will allow you to plug in IBM boards, like the
Chinon controller. I'm not sure how compatible it will be, so we will just
have to wait for user reports from that area or someone brave enough here
in the US to try it out.
