Today version 2.6.0 of the well-known Amiga emulator WinUAE has been released. Among others, now the MMUs of the 68030, 68040 and 68060 are completely emulated. With it, Amix, Linux, NetBSD, Enforcer and WHDLoad do work with MMU-option without any limitations.
New features:
- SCSI and ATAPI (IDE) CD drive emulation
- Full 68030, 68040 and 68060 MMU emulation. Amix, Linux, NetBSD, Enforcer, WHDLoad MMU option and more fully working
- Built-in full CHD CD and HD image support. HD image support is read-only
- Partial partition hardfile on the fly eject/replacement support, requires filesystem that has removable drive support

- A2065 network adapter compatibility improved (early NetBSD versions)
- Multithreaded IDE and SCSI emulation, slow read or write operations won't temporarily pause the emulation anymore
- When CPU double faults, emulated CPU is halted instead of forcing instant emulated hardware reset

Fixed bugs:
- If display mode switched from RTG to native (or vice versa) and WinUAE window had no focus: emulation incorrectly started receiving keyboard input
- 1.5M chip ram option didn't work
- GamePorts panel Swap Ports button cleared custom mappings
- 68060 + more compatible checked was unreliable
- 68040/68060 no FPU/FPU disabled exception stack frame fixed
