The FireBee FreeMiNT Setup 2022
2022-12-31:
This year we are back with a strong sign of life. Now that the website is up and running again and all information has been correctly coded in the respective languages, we are proud to present a completely new FireBee FreeMiNT Setup at the end of the year.
To celebrate the tenth anniversary of our first multitasking setup, this is a completely new MiNT installation. All programs are up to date. A number of new user programs have also found their way in and can be used immediately in the usual pre-installed way.
The project, which was largely implemented by Jo Even Skarstein at the time, has been driven forward by Latz over the last few years. In years of tireless work for our platform, we were able to put together a very respectable and, under the circumstances, up-to-date operating system with over 50 modern user programs. Our special thanks go to all the external programmers who have allowed us to pre-install their software or have made it available under free licences anyway.
In this context we would like to point out that we as the ACP team did not coded most of the operating system and its sub-areas, as well as the user programs, and therefore cannot be responsible for their functionality or support. Finally, the credit must go to those who deserve it, namely the hundreds of people all over the world who create various software titles and operating system parts for the Atari platform, mostly in their spare time. First and foremost, the contributors to the FreeMiNT project who continue to provide our platform with a modern multitasking operating system overlay under a free licence.
Our FireBee FreeMiNT setup
, as usual, can be unpacked directly onto a compact flash card and run under FireTOS. EmuTOS, as before, does not work with it! In any case, we recommend a separate empty CF card. Unpacking on an already existing installation makes no sense because of the new file/folder structure and is only advisable in exceptional cases for very experienced people.
We hope to sweeten the start of the new year with this new system version and to have provided you with many exciting hours with your FireBees. From next year onwards, we will be contacting you more regularly as a project with the latest news, and hopefully we will finally be able to complete the delivery of the currently sold-out series.
