Excellent! :ok:

My FreeDOS floppy, MetaDOS supported running ppcross8086.exe under HX, using an old 2018 (3.1.1) snapshot (grabbed via FTP). Try running that under VBox or QEMU. That might be much easier than rebuilding the cross-compiler for macOS! (I guess you could also emulate Linux and run it there. Trisquel has a small 42 MB text-based network installer image. FPC shouldn't have messy external dependencies on Linux.)

IIRC, Laaca said FPC 3.2.0 didn't run under HX, but I'm not sure which version (2.18?) he tested.
