    Anyone was able to boot OS-9/ST v2.3 on the 68030 32 MHz equiped Atari TT?
On the 4M bytes model that I've tried, the TT crashs after STARTFD.PRG prompts
for "Insert OS9 Boot diskette and Press a key" a soon I touch the keyboard. Too
bad, the computer is very very fast and seems to be nice. No improvments even
if I ask for a ST compatible mode instead of the default TT mode. Maybe I
should try with older version of OSK, 2.2 or 1.2. But I don't think it will
help. Anyway, even if it works, drivers will have to be written for the
additional ports, like the two serial 85C30 SDLC ports, the 68882, the VME bus,
the SCSI connector, the LAN outlet, etc.

   Also the MS-DOS emulator PC-DITTO (software version) does not work. Others
TOS programs that were in the store (Calamus, etc) seems to work OK.

BYE
