AROS port up-to-date on Sam440
« on: April 14, 2010, 09:26:10 PM »
Dear Amigans,

We are happy to announce the AROS port on Sam440 is now fully up-to-date, and will stay updated.

From now on, AROS updates are usable immediately on Sam440 through the nightly builds available on AROS website.

Get your ISO and use AROS now:

Very cool :-)  It does make me wonder though, what if a customer wants a Sam to use use as a ppc linux and/or AROS machine rather than OS4.x?  Is it possible to buy the boards without OS4.x ? I'd like to be able to test software ports Ive done for ppc AROS,... cross compiling isnt a problem, but it's not much fun relying on other people to test your software for you.

Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.

@fishy_fiz

You could try a Mac Mini G4 running hosted version (but don't use YDL as it crawls)

@ Elwood

The boot up cd load up nicely but my mouse movement is dead slow maiing the system unuseable ??

few questions:

1- can I boot up AROS with the new slbv2 that came with Update 1
2- what files system should I use to format my AROS partition? it currently has SFS/02 on it

I had a quick go of the live CD. From what I could see,  my mouse didn't work at all. I haven't had the chance to stuff around with it enough to see if I can get the mouse to work or not yet.

my mouse is working fine now with the first boot option on the CD....if i try loading up the AltUSB option then I have the mouse issue.
At the moment, I'm trying to install and boot up AROS from a USB stick....i get to the point where the installer sees my USB drive but it keeps telling me to reboot??

Sounds like a Posiedon issue.

No, you need to install Parthenope on the disk RDB.

SFS0, as SFS2 is OS4 only.
