Re: Nanomig
Keep in mind that it is enough compatible that it is used as basis for both ApolloOS and A600GS.Responded in Nanomig

Re: Nanomig
First of all, you should know that 'native' AROS 68k is 'partially' compatible with Amiga OS31 software, and is not compatible with OS3.5, OS39 and os 3.2 software ....
Quite the opposite, no Amiga system is compatible with AROS 68k software, this is because AROS binaries are "ELF", while the Amiga uses "Hunk".
If you want I can send you a basic version of AROS One 68k,but be careful to boot it you will need 2 ROMs (Kickstart) you can also merge them and get a single 1MB Rom
Having said that caffeine can boot via AROS ROMs, but cannot run any native AROS 68k softwareResponded in Nanomig

Re: Nanomig
Hi, is there link for this distro image and for a slim aros 68k distro? I think it wouldnt harm to ask a try (even if i think it would be a little early in the priorities, it is a curiosity)
Probably the horse power is the same of a pistormed amiga, changing from a raspberry model to other.
Ps: i had the impression that caffeine was AROS basedResponded in Nanomig

AROS 68k is identical to AROS x86, only it runs on 68k machines !
You can see in the video my AROS One 68k !

Re: Nanomig
Well, apparently it allready run caffeineOS ...
i dont know exactly what is AROS 68k or another binary, but as for my benchmark it allready reached the expected level.
we are at the begin of 2025, i would expect by the end of the year we have a very clear vision of how this evolved.
we have a heavy team around: Till, Claude and Michal i would bet for an awesome result with no doubt!Responded in Nanomig

Hi all,
It's happening :) (PocketStorm)
A little side project. I took Till Harbaum's nanomig, stripped it down a bit and added a PiStorm interface. Prototype is running on a SipeedIO Tang Nano 20k, currently designing a better PCB for it. Nice cheap, insane fast hybrid emulation (FPGA + Emu68 JIT on Pi4/3) Amiga :)

Re: Icon Tools
The Save_Amiga_Icon functions are coming along nicely! For the sub-functions other than Write_OS35data the second most difficult for me was the Write_Image function which writes planar data to file. There are just a few functions left to do till Save_Amiga_Icon is done. I've been working on Save_Amiga_Icon for 6 months.
Why is it so important to save an Amiga Icon? The Classic Icon is the basis for three of the Icon styles supported by AROS. The Amiga Glow Icon is a Classic Icon (Old Icon Format) with OS 3.5 IFF Icon Data attached at the end. The IFF data contains the images that AROS displays. An OS4 icon is a Classic Icon with OS 3.5 Data attached. But unlike a Glow Icon it only has a 'FACE' chunk with no 'IMAG' chunks. It has 2 'ARGB' chunks at the end of the Icon file that are used to display. The AROS Hybrid Icon or ARGB Icon is similar to the OS4 Icon but it has a complete Glow Icon that 2 ARGB chunks are attached to at the end.
Write_Image is now working. Save_Amiga_Icon loads an ILBM file to get the chunky image data which consists of index values. The image data is processed by RemapIconImage which maps the index values to a standard 4-color palette. Write_Image then writes the planar data to file.
In the screenshot on the lower right side there are 2 small Windows displaying icons. I used the VIEW option for modifyicon to display the Old Icon Images & Glow Icon Images to make sure Write_Image was working correctly. At first it wasn't. The first set of images shows distortion for the Old Icon Images, though the Glow Icon Images are shown correctly.
The distortion for the Gadget Images is caused by incorrectly handling the padding bytes at the end of each scanline for the planar data. I tried to go the easy route by writing the entire planar buffer to file in one go. This is the result.
In the second set of images you see that the Gadget Images & Glow Icon Images are shown correctly. I had to revise Write_Image to write each scanline separately with padding bytes.Responded in Icon Tools

Re: Icon Tools
Definitely Mike, AROS has grown considerably in quality and stability,
especially if you have a PC with supported hardare, as demonstrated in this video!
