Inspired by the X1000 blog (
http://amigax1000.blogspot.nl/2016/04/aros-vision-on-amiga-4000t-part-1.html?m=1) I tried AROS vision as well, hoping it would run on my A3000. Unfortunately this was my experience:
So I though I'd give this a try on my A3000 (with CSMK2 060, CVG64). Without any luck too
Like I do with all Amiga partitions I prepared it in WinUAE. I extracted the RTG zip to a folder on the PC (inside WinUAE). After that it already failed when copying the files to the root of a PFS3_AIO formatted 4 GB (1 single full sized partition) CF. I get a Wrong Index Block ID error. The identifier I used is the same one mentioned here

After the tweaking mentioned in the blog (correct rom path & set file protection to execute), it booted, loaded the AROS ROM, rebooted and then got stuck on the AROS boot screen. Like it didn't detect the HDD (PC folder).
I am very confused about AROS version/distros as well (AROS 68k, AROS vision,...same or different?). I also have an AROS install as part of Amiga Forever, that looks really really nice (e.g.
http://aros-exec.org/modules/xcgal/albums/userpics/12329/normal_001.png)! But the screenshots on the website
http://www.aros-platform.de/aros_vision.htm do not, IMO, look even half as nice. But if I'm right this contains a lot more, application wise, especially the RTG version.
No idea how to continue. It would be really nice to have my A3000 boot in a more modern looking OS...
