I did studied GEOS some time ago, when I released the preliminary English version that all you around know.
GEOS 3.5 has some features that wellknown 2.0 version (that one for C64) has not. For example colors: 3.5 has more colors but, apart odd background shadows, it can run successfully most of 2.0 applications.
However the main difference is that 3.5 works *only* with 1551 drives and max number is 2, contrary of the 2.0 that can have more. Furthermore uses a turbo designed for 1551 only.
The ram expansion detecting present in GEOS 2.0 is not here, anyway it would work only with proprietary c64 ram expansions.
So much road is to do in order to obtain what you dream
