Post by: RetroPassion on April 21, 2024, 04:49:28 PM: Clarification over AmigaOS 3.2.2. AmiKit requires you to have AmigaOS 3.2 with the latest update available in the form the the 3.2.2 ADF files copied to the SD card. It will then 'commission' the install for you and within 5/10 mins you will have a full RTG desktop with tons of goodies!

Amiga 1200 with PiStorm32-lite & Raspberry Pi 4B (1GB+ RAM) or a CM4 or at least RPi3; with heatsinks + ideally a cooling fan

MINIMUM SETUP

Amiga 500/600/2000 with PiStorm & Raspberry Pi 3A+ or 3B+
or Zero2W; with heatsinks + ideally a cooling fan

YOU WILL ALSO NEED

+ second Amiga monitor for 15kHz native modes like PAL/NTSC

(or just one monitor with multiple inputs or a suitable video upscaler allowing 15kHz modes on modern monitors)

Amiga internet connection now provided by Raspberry itself!
