This is the first time I have used Amikit to get online
and it is something else.

@ amigadave :
 I installed this a while back and did not have internet access hooked up to it.
All I need now is a Transparent OS.
What I would like is a Host OS that can be controlled by the Amiga and was lighting fast.

@trekiej

You're describing Amithlon.

Its a shame that OS4 hardware isn't widely available and cheap, since on that AmigaOS is controlling the hardware, not a host OS.. *sigh*

I wish I'd asked Bernie to let me beta test it, back in the day, and/or bought it when it was available...
*sigh*

This may be a crazy idea. What would it be like to put a an OS on the same rom as exec? I belive it would require a larger rom. Maybe another rom that would boot first and then the exec.
The first rom would house the OS and emulator. The second rom could be Kickstart.
