  • Dualbooting Amigaos 4 and Amigaos 3.5/3.9
    Dualbooting AmigaOS 4 and AmigaOS 3.5/3.9 By Christoph Gutjahr. Licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License This tutorial explains how to turn a classic Amiga into a dualboot system that lets you choose the desired operating system - AmigaOS 4 or AmigaOS 3.5/3.9 - at every cold start. A "cold start" happens when... 1. the computer has just been switched on 2. you press the key combination Control-Amiga-Amiga for more than ten seconds while running AmigaOS 3 3. you press Control-Alt-Alt (instead of Control-Amiga-Amiga) under AmigaOS 4 During a "warm reboot" (e.g. by shortly pressing Control-Amiga-Amiga), the operating system that is currently used will be booted again. Requirements This tutorial is only useful for people using AmigaOS 3.5 or 3.9 in addition to AmigaOS 4. If you're using an older version of OS 3, you can not use the scripts described below. The Amiga in question should have two boot partitions - one for AmigaOS 4 and one for AmigaOS 3.5/3.9, both should be below the famous 4 GB barrier. The OS 4 partition must have a higher boot priority. Two different solutions There are two different approaches for dualbooting: the first one described below will display a simple 'boot menu' at every cold boot, asking the user to select the OS he wants to boot. The other solution explained afterwards will always boot into AmigaOS 4, unless the user enters the "Early Startup Menu" and selects the OS 3 partition as the boot drive.

  • An Introduction to Morphos
    An Introduction to MorphOS Updated to include features to version 1.4.5 May 14, 2005 MorphOS 1.4 This presentation gives an overview of MorphOS and the features that are present in the MorphOS 1.4 shipping product. For a fully comprehensive list please see the "Full Features list" which can be found at: www.PegasosPPC.com Why MorphOS? Modern Operating Systems are powerful, flexible and stable tools. For the most part, if you know how to look after them, they do their job reasonably well. But, they are just tools to do a job. They've lost their spark, they're boring. A long time ago computers were fun, it is this background that MorphOS came from and this is what MorphOS is for, making computers fun again. What is MorphOS? MorphOS is a fully featured desktop Operating System for PowerPC CPUs. It is small, highly responsive and has very low hardware requirements. The overall structure of MorphOS is based on a new modern kernel called Quark and a structure divided into a series of "boxes". This system allows different OS APIs to be used along side one another but isolates them so one cannot compromise the other. To make sure there is plenty of software to begin with the majority of development to date has been based on the A- BOX. In the future the more advanced Q-Box shall be added. Compatibility The A-Box is an entire PowerPC native OS layer which includes source and binary compatibility with software for the Commodore A500 / A1200 etc.

  • Das Problem Mit Den Pipes Copyright Christoph Gutjahr, Lizenziert Unter Der Creative Commons Zero Lizenz
    Das Problem mit den Pipes Copyright Christoph Gutjahr, lizenziert unter der Creative Commons Zero Lizenz. Ursprünglich veröffentlicht in Amiga Magazin 02/2002 Großalarm? Anfang November wurde in einigen Web-Foren und auf verschiedenen News-Seiten im Internet auf eine schwerwiegende Sicherheitslücke in Amiga Internet Programmen aufmerksam gemacht. Dabei wurde mit teilweise recht reißerischen Schlagzeilen nicht gegeizt. Eine erste Bestandsaufnahme ergibt tatsächlich ein erschreckendes Bild: Unter gewissen Umstän- den wäre es einem potentiellen Angreifer möglich, auf einem Amiga Programme zu starten - und zwar ohne jegliches Zutun des Besitzers. Dabei stünden ihm sogar etliche verschiedene Möglichkei- ten offen, um das gewünschte Ziel zu erreichen. Welche unangenehmen Folgen das haben könnte, wird sehr schnell klar, wenn man an Shell-Befehle wie DELETE denkt: Die Befehlsfolge delete SYS:#? ALL FORCE QUIET würde beispielsweise praktisch den gesamten Inhalt Ihrer Bootpartition löschen. Es gibt jedoch keinen Grund, in Panik zu verfallen: Mit dem entsprechenden Wissen ist es relativ einfach, alle Lücken zu schließen - und viele von Ihnen sind von dem Problem wahrscheinlich gar nicht direkt betroffen. Beachtlich ist bei der ganzen Thematik viel eher die Tatsache, dass die im Folgenden erläuterten Sicherheitslücken bereits seit mehreren Jahren bekannt sind. Zumindest gibt Vaporware (Voyager, AmIRC, mFTP…) an, dass ihre Programme bereits seit längerem gegen die hier beschriebenen An- griffe immun sind. Wann ist ein Amiga angreifbar ? Zunächst einmal gilt: Angreifbar sind nur Rechner, auf denen neben dem Standard „Pipe“-Gerät zu- sätzlich in der Funktionalität erweiterte Clones installiert sind (s. Kasten „Was sind Pipes?“). Soll- ten solche Geräte bei ihnen nicht installiert sein, ist Ihr Rechner durch die im Folgenden beschriebe- nen Methoden grundsätzlich nicht aus der Ruhe zu bringen.
