0 Nidonocu Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 CherryOS I have to admit sucks as a program. It crashes when its trying to created Drive images, saying 'warning, this program may hang for 5 to 10 minutes while the disk is formatted' .... yeah, great programming there. 15 minutes later and my hard drive stops spinning about 4 minutes ago? Still no program responce. *blam* End Task'ed. Next, it claims in the features that it supports sound, unlike PearPC. Check the hard to find release notes. 'There are currently issues with sound on most configurations'. ... See, 'we haven't finished coding it yet, but give us money anyway for something to emulate a PC to run an operating system that's primary use is multimedia. PearPC at least admitted its foilbles, with the help of various frontends was easy to configure and didn't crash all the bloody time before the O/S had even started either! <crosspost with discussion on latest CherryOS news item> Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/294414-cherry-os-trial-available/page/18/#findComment-585595933 Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 NeoXY Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 holy CRAD!!!....DID YOU READ THE FRONT PAGE?!?!?......From the "creator" of Cherry OS. He said, that Cherry OS is based on a complet different code and archtecture and that is why they can achieve such stability and "speed". MY A$$....there was no stability and speed and it was an almost 100% copy of PearPC....this guy is ****ing me off and who ever pays for this deserve to be slapped...

0 ahave Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 (edited) Yes its slow, yes it's unbearable, yes it's not a mac. But it's a view into the mac os world, wich I really need as an administrator and as a nerd. You can't excuse that they've taken the code from ppc, and expect to payed for it. I'm an open source fan, actively in the EU. But it has one advantage to ppc, ICS, which means that you don't have to hassle with your nic, or buy a new one. I had a realtec nic rtl8139, but it didn't seem to work out with ppc, so my solution was cherryOS, with ICS. But to newbees, open source fans, I would highly recommend PPc control panel It works very good with ppc Pear ppc Its much easier this way.

0 someguy03 Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 I could really care less if it is a rip of PearPC. If its better and it works, then why does it matter?

You do realize that the whole reason for open source is to not have copyright laws right? 585600377[/snapback] Most open source software relies on copyright. The majority of open source software is not public domain and is copyrighted. What they do have is far more lenient distribution terms and end-user use terms.

0 Fotix Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 no, this is different. its not opensource, its theft. 585600422[/snapback] I wouldn't call it theft, personally, I'd call it plagiarism, and a possible violation of their license terms. They didn't remove anything, but duplicated somebody else's work and took credit for it. If the allegations against CherryOS are correct, that is. :ninja: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/294414-cherry-os-trial-available/page/18/#findComment-585600655 Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 someguy03 Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Ok, we have established that many of you think CherryOS is a copy of PearPC under a different interface. Now, can we please get into something else? Like talking about bugs, product updates, specs, speeds, etc, about CherryOS? I for one, need help. When using CherryOS, I got to the point in the OS X installation where you are asked to select a usable volume to install it too, but am not shown any places to install it (its blank). Why?
