Wow.

Let's make just two remarks.

1) I don't see any problem with the AHDI type harddisk driver
interface. Don't blame other drivers for things you don't like in
ICD. There is already an interface for non-blocking I/O (background
DMA) which is used in MagiC, and I am sure that those driver authors
who support it are more than willing to support a similar one in
MiNT.

2) Generally, what you are proposing seems to be a Linux which is
able to run TOS and GEM programs. If you really want that, you should
put your time into these emulation projects...
