To get this straight once and for all ;-)
MultiTOS _IS_ based on MiNT.
You cannot run MultiTOS without MiNT.
MultiTOS requires MiNT.
To say "MultiTOS is outdated, download MiNT
instead" is like saying "Mercedes cars are
no good, buy a car instead".
Besides that, MiNT is as complex as you want
it to be. If you want a shell-login, extended file systems and run a lot of Linux ports, installing and configuring MiNT is about as complex as installing and configuring Linux.
If you just want to run Atari applications in a Multi-tasking environment, putting MINT.PRG in your Auto-folder and set MINT.CNF up in a way that it automatically loads XaAES (free) or N.AES (commercial) is sufficient.
And that's not very complex, is it ? :-)
If didel really wants to run the original MultiTOS, i can have a look where i have my original MultiTOS disk.
