Free Pascal / Re: FPC program won't run on stock 1200 UAE VM
« Last post by magorium on December 29, 2025, 09:23:01 PM »
Attached image not exactly from a stock 1200 VM but almost (I've added 8 MB fastram).

I've used latest amiberry and fpc trunk from yesterday. The only other odd thing out was that my script used an older vasm (I forgot to remove the version numbering so did not test with latest vasm release though I do not expect issues but feel free to let me know to test with another version of either vasm or vlink ... or with whatever is your poison :) .

I've also attached the m68k hello world src+executable so that you could check if wanted.

edit: oh well, apparently attachments are using a forbidden resource or something. Just gimme a shout and we figure something out.

Free Pascal / Re: FPC program won't run on stock 1200 UAE VM

Apologies Markus, as I just noticed your post (IRL sux sometimes).

Do you mean a simple hello world from ALB's online compiler work for these VM's while your compiled hello world doesn't ?

First things to verify is memory (especially Lazarus requires to much for a stock Amiga so better boost it) and difference in compiler version (in case there is any). I am aware that there were a few changes regarding m68k in trunk couple of months ago so that might have an impact.

I rarely test on/for m68k these days (I probably should with all new hw).

Happy Holidays,



In order to be able to verify for sure following information is required:
- fpc compiler version (hash in case trunk/main otherwise version number and in case fixes also fixes date)
- binutils version number and which binutils were used e.g gnu vs v(link/asm)
- amigaos (kernel/rom/os) version number (I would need to setup such vm myself)

FPC 3.2.2 with a simple helloworld worked for me with no problem (but that doesn't mean anything these days anymore :-) ).

Free Pascal / FPC program won't run on stock 1200 UAE VM
« Last post by MarcusF on November 21, 2025, 01:46:10 PM »
Hoping someone here's great with the compiler.

I've run into an issue where the program I cross-compile will run on the boosted machines, the A4000 vm, but not the 600 or 1200 stock VM's.
No errors when I run it. It just seems to pause for a moment, no output, then back to the CLI.

FPC and Lazarus installed with FPCUpDeluxe, cross compiler for Amiga 68k also installed with FPCUpDeluxe.

Tested by compiling to a shared directory mounted to all the VMs to ensure the same binary is tested on all machines.

ALB's online/JS compiler outputs a hello world that DOES run on all the machines tested.

I've no idea what difference there is between his and mine.

Tested all sorts of settings, not sure what to change at this point :(

AROS One / AROS One v1.2 64Bit (ABIv11) Released
« Last post by AMIGASYSTEM on May 15, 2025, 04:53:29 AM »



First version of AROS One v1.0 64-Bit (ABIv11) available for download

AROS 64-bit (ABIv11) is the result of several years of development by numerous AROS developers and the last six months of intensive testing, debugging and stabilisation. This initial release offers improved support for virtual environments (VirtualBox, VMware and QEMU) and for some, but not yet all, of the hardware components supported by the 32-bit version. To learn more about the developments planned for the coming months, please consult our Development Plan .

AROS One v1.0 incorporates the entire AROS 64-bit Build (ABIv11), and also includes all software available on Arosarchive and all software from the Contrib package dedicated to AROS 64-bit (ABIv11),

AROS One 64Bit is distributed with the graphical appearance, icons and scripts of version 2.8 of AROS One 32Bit.

The download is available both as an ISO version and as a USB Image version (Live Pendrive).

Since a few hours the download was available but blocked for testing purposes, I apologise to those who clicked and could not download it due to lack of permissions (I have already received some notifications from Google), from now on the download is available, but if problems should still arise due to too much traffic on Google Drive (as often happens on the first day), I recommend downloading at a less busy time or in the days to follow.

The OS4 versions are very old, on AROS OWB is much more advanced (also available in 64Bit), the current version is 2.1, version 2.5 is in the works.

If you want more detailed information on what is required or to discuss with deadwood, you should do so on this forum:

I am currently setting up Deadwoods cross development tools on ubuntu and rebuild.sh gives me two m68k core options. Where is the difference between them ? One is called classic.
following this: https://arosnews.github.io/how-to-cross-compile-aros-hosted-wsl/

next question.. I found owb 1.9 sources which confuses me as hell.. OS4 has a 3.x version but I can't find the sources. Odyssey from Deadwood looks totally different (I don't mean Zune / UI but the code base itself). If I check 1.9 from here http://fabportnawak.free.fr/owb/src/ I can see that the Big and little endian stuff is handled as well as OS specific changes. My plan would be to add AROS m68k specific changes to get it running on virtual, fpga or ARM powered classics.

Now I am thinking to start from 1.9 source (for classics less is more anyway). Any thoughts ? I would put it on GitHub so if someone likes to dig through it you are welcome.
