No, ownership is not in dispute - all the relevant parties agree that Cloanto owns it. What is in dispute is what exactly is covered by Hyperion's license.

Yeah, fair enough, I was thinking in terms of Hyperion's claim of ownership based on Amiga's insolvency. But in the context of the conversation here it's irrelevant.

The problem is there's money in them thar licences

One thing that bothers me about this is I haven't taken time to try and make it a totally cut down version of AROS. AROS is the future.

I was under the impression AmigaOS commands run on aros but not the other way around

I can't even remember but iirc quite a few commands work but there was a few problems with librarys etc.

One of the stated goals of AROS is to replicate the Amiga OS 3.1 API, so there will be a large level of compatibility between the two, and thus many commands from AROS will work on Kickstart 3.1 and vice versa.

I know, but let's say I try to run som commands from aros c, I can't get them to run, but if i run amigaos commands on aros they will.

[Daedalus]

I guess it comes down to the particular dependencies of certain commands. The few AROS commands I've tried have worked fine on Kickstart 3.1 (but not on 1.3, which was what I was looking for).

Some seem to run other asks for libraries, which can't be reached even if I set the assigns. It's like an hit and miss, case by case basis
