deadwood a question ! I noticed that the files of the Contrib have different sizes, for example the Libs folder, I assume it's the difference in the compilation, should I overwrite those of the Build ?

I also noticed that there is still a "duplicate" Catalogs, there are "catalan" and "catalonian", Catalonia is an "Autonomous Community of Spain".

In the Demo folder of the Buid, folder MCC_NList, the demo "NList-Demo" crashes WMware and Guru on AROS Hosted

Catalan is a language of Spain (not Spanish, another Latín Dialect), Catalonianian and similar are the same...

Where can I try any Linux Hosted for ArosX86?
Is there any link to just Download and make a try?

They are built from exactly same sources, but for sake a clarity, please always use file that came on the ISO instead the one from Contrib.

I'll fix that when synchronizing translations after the release. catalonian will be removed.

I tried compiling "raudio" see attached aros archive link, with AROS One 32Bit the compilation was successful, and the obtained raudio binary works fine.

On AROS One 64Bit (both Vmware Windows, and Linux Hosted) I have errors with both GCC 6.5.0 and GCC 10.5.0, although the errors are different, see the 2 screenshots
