UPDATE: New build released. Please read the description below on the new features.
New features in this release: Support for the COMPAQ Portable/Portable Plus (very early; COMPAQ-specific features disabled for compiled binaries), source code matched with IBM PC Technical Reference, and references to "PCE" now being changed to the correct name ("The Virtual Computer Collection").
Another project that I'm working on is support for the 80386 CPU, which will have its own build and will emulate the Intel Inboard/386 PC until support is added for the IBM PC/AT and IBM PS/2 machines. While the source code is not yet ready to be built, I am still working on it daily to ensure that it gets finished as soon as possible. The 80386 CPU is being developed on parallel with the new machines.
Machines currently available to test:
- IBM Personal Computer (Model 5150)/
IBM Personal Computer/XT (Model 5160)
- IBM Portable PC (Model 5155)
- IBM PS/2 Model 25/30 (placeholder only; modified IBM PC configuration with 20 MB hard disk and
IBM VGA until actual development begins)
- COMPAQ Portable/Portable Plus (certain COMPAQ features disabled in compiled binaries; re-enable in source code and recompile to test)
- Olivetti M24/AT&T 6300 (8086)
