OS++ DOS is only -booted if the disk image in drive 1 is not bootable, so it won't conflict -with bootable DOS disks. - -OS++ is written in 6502 assembler. You will need cc65 installed to build -this package (though not to run it). cc65 is available at SlackBuilds.org - -This version of OS++ has been slightly modified to work with the Atari800 -emulator. See /usr/doc/os++-20070109/README.atari800 for more information. - -If you have the SlackBuilds.org atari800_roms and atari800_os++ packages -installed, you can adjust the symlink at /usr/share/atari800/atarixl.rom -to choose which OS will run (or, edit ~/.atari800.cfg, or run atari800 -with the -xlxe_rom option). - -Note: OS++ only replaces the OS ROM. If you want to run BASIC programs, -you will still need an Atari BASIC image, or a freeware/PD BASIC -interpreter such as Turbo BASIC XL. - -If you'd rather use the original ROMs, install atari800_roms instead -of this package (or in addition to it, and change the symlink at -/usr/share/atari800/atarixl.rom as desired). |
