Re: msx emulator, atari port

Yes, it is. AmigaOS is very different from FreeMINT/TOS etc, however.

To run "native", Basilisk 2 needs to access the lower 2k address range freely. On the Atari, the first 8 bytes are ROM, and the remainder is used for interrupt/exception vectors and system variables. The interrupt/exception vectors can be moved using the VBR, but this is a very ugly thing to do, and I'm not even sure if there is a way to move the system variables without creating a special virtual address space for the basilisk process using the PMMU. Could be possible if one disables memory protection and mess with the VBR, but frankly, at the moment this is not my cup of tea. Perhaps in the future when I know how such stuff really works in practice.

In the mean time - my advice is - if you want something done, do it yourself :-)
