Recent developments on RISC OS 5 mean that in addition to running on
the Iyonix and BeagleBoard, it can now be softloaded on a RiscPC and
used with the free RPCemu emulator on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux.
This opens up the possibility of a completely free RISC OS emulator.
Ben Avison from RISC OS Open Ltd will be bringing along a BeagleBoard
or two to demonstrate and answer questions about the latest
developments. Please bring along your favourite software (on USB
stick) to test it for BeagleBoard compatibility.
We also hope to try loading RISC OS 5 on the club's RiscPC and on
RPCemu to see how the systems compare.
BeagleBoard Ingredients from June meeting
=========================================
At the June meeting, Dave Lane presented his list of "ingredients"
required to get RISC OS up and running on a BeagleBoard.
This list can be downloaded from the meeting webpage:

Thanks to Dave for producing this document.
The usual arrangements
======================
Admittance is free and everyone is welcome. A range of hot and cold
food, alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, will be on sale.
Anyone with wireless enabled handhelds or laptops can access the
internet during the meeting, or (if time allows) use ROUGOL's RiscPC
to do so after the main presentation has finished.
The venue is between London Bridge and Borough tube stations, so
readily accessible by public transport (both stations are a five
minute walk away, through well lit and CCTV'd main streets). It also
has ample cycle parking (covered by CCTV) very close by.
If you are arriving by car, the Congestion Charge ends at 6pm and our
meeting starts much later. However, please note that parking on double
red lines is restricted at all times. On single red or yellow lines,
it is best to park after 7pm. If you aren't completely familiar with
*central* London parking or driving, please allow extra time,
patience, and maps.
If you need any help reaching the venue, or any other information,
please contact us as below.
