Trying aros on my laptop...

[bloodline]

I want to give a try to aros and have some questions, on the laptop i have windows 7 installed, how can install aros with dual boot with w7?

Laptop have realtek audio and gma 950 graphics card, are audio and graphics compatible with aros?

Thanks.

Don't bother installing AROS, just boot from the LiveCD. That way your Windows setup will be unharmed and you get to play with AROS

Yes i try with the live cd but the slow access to the cd make the experience a bit slow and with some freezes.

Thanks for all replies.

In that case, I used PartitionMagic to resize my Windows drive and install grub.

Perhaps a Copy2RAM option could be added to the grub menu like on some Linux distros?

That's a bloody good idea!

BTW: The 20101117 build of AROS 68k is much more stable than before, it booted up first time every time for me in UAE!

Great news indeed, I shall downloaderise it ASAP!

Shall I propose a bounty for Copy2ram? Lol

A quiet word with whoever is maintaining icaros now would probably be a better idea
