AROS: Icaros Desktop 1.5
In version 1.5 of Paolo Besser's AROS-distribution Icaros Desktop the files layout, the installation process as well as the the emulation environment have been completely overhauled. The emulation environment now starts ADF-images as well as harddrive-based applications without requiring the original Kickstart-files.

Icaros 1.5 now is based on the latest AROS-kernel ("ABI v1 Backport") which is supposed to provide improved speed, compatibility and stability. For users who have problems with this kernel a "Legacy Kernel Edition" of Icaros is avilable. (cg) (Translation: dr)

ACube Systems: Minimig and ARM-controllers available again
