That would be a great thing to see done, a binary compatiable ROM that you could load workbench on until Aros is perfected.
I wish whoever gets assigned this the very best of luck.

Ummm... Workbench is contained in the Kickstart ROM as well.


Err, the CLI is in the kickstart, the GUI (Workbench) is on floppy/CD-Rom/harddrive.

I can see an alliance between the Classic Amiga owners, Emulators, and AROS community being beneficial to everyone. Classic owner can see a ray of hope for updating WB and kickstart. Emulators can gain freedom from having deal with Amiga Inc's IP.


That would be a deam... however the Amiga AROS has been left for so long now I would bet a complete redesign from scratch  would be needed to suit the newer source code.

Ahh if I could program this is what I would be working on.. but I cant so  :-(
