You need to use a pre 2.0 version of FPC for this. The 68k code isn't enabled and/or maintained in current versions.

Of course you can try to revive it again :D

Seems viable-

What is the reason why 68K is not supported in the newer versions ?

Demand? I think this thread is the first time I've seen 68K mentioned for many years except in the context of programming classic Palms (for which there is, it appears, a native Pascal compiler).

I see that the Linux kernel still supports the architecture, and that Qemu supports a variant. But I don't think I've ever seen a 68K system on e.g. eBay... I lie, somebody was trying to give away an old workstation on a private conferencing system I use (CIX) but it had something like 2Mb RAM.
