 Subject: RE: Even more nonsens... ;-)

060 does not have the movep instruction. Widely used for chunky to planar routines as well as writing to many of the system registers. For example TOS uses movep at startup, that is why a patched TOS is needed for accelerators. 64bit mul and div instructions are also missing as well as MANY fpu instructions from the 68882.

Motoralo has a free software package for emulating the missing instructions, but as a mul is 2clock and an interupt for handling a missing instruction is way over 50 just for the interupt you can guess how slow it is to use the missing instructions.
