Still some work to do, but...

Very nice! I love that iconset

Version 0.4 of distro piAROS ready to download: https://archive.org/download/piAROS

Thanks! Does it include all available 3rd party software for AROS aarch64? Or I need to download it separately?

@Bohun

Here are the results of a test on a Pi400 (translated from the German forum on amiga-news.de):

“Gave it a quick test.

Good news: the software failure during boot is gone, and the Wanderer appears without further error messages—including the menu at the bottom.

Bad news: all other errors persist or have unfortunately gotten worse.

1. Screen dragging: Previously, the screen would go black for just a second but still work; now it doesn't work at all. It goes black immediately, and the dragged screen turns gray. If you drag and click around a bit, the Wanderer partially redraws itself... but without backgrounds, windows are empty, etc.

2. Wi-Fi connects to hotspots (WPA2), but no IP is generated. Regardless of the router (Fritzbox, Android, iPhone hotspot), it always says "connected... waiting for an address" at the bottom. Do I need to configure something manually now? That wasn't the case before (it works automatically under AOS4.1).

3. Moria3D no longer complains about the stack but doesn't open a screen either. It throws an error: "Screen 320xsomething cannot be opened."

4. The Extras directory icon is present, but inside the Games folder, everything except *TrevorsSuperland* remains hidden or lacks an icon.“

5. The Shell entry in the BoingIconBar (i.e., bottom center) isn't working. However, it does work via the "old-school" method using the Wanderer menu at the top left.

@8cOv2G3N
I tried to include all the software I knew about.

@aha
Thanks. I'll make the appropriate changes in version 0.4.1 to the extent I can. Regarding Wi-Fi, I noticed that sometimes there were problems initiating the connection, but clicking Disconnect and then Connect again would connect. I'll test with newer Wi-Fi versions and maybe find some earlier versions on my hard drive. At the very least, I'd downgrade the Wi-Fi.

It looks like Faenza for AROS. It goes well with the Pi AROS look & feel. :-)

The background image is also very well done!

I mean inside the piAROS.zip there is no opentyrian, Aveterna, commander_keen_4, grafx2, milkytracker, edgesnap and pintp programs

You're right. I overwrote Extras with a newer version, and on Mac it deletes the unique content. I'm fixing it now, but I'm more concerned about the Wi-Fi issue. I can't figure out why it doesn't work after compressing and unpacking the archive. Update 0.4.1 coming soon.

update to version 0.4.1: added missing programs, fixed terminal in BoingIconBar, wifi works better but not perfectly, added folder icons in Extras/Games

I love the icons and background images. I'm going to download the archive and try to run it on my Pi400.

Awesome work! Thank you.

looks really good

AROS for Rapberry Pi is the way to go. I always liked dedicated hardware.
I will try this on my Pi4. The distro is looking great! Good job!

Hello Nikos

Hi Olaf Long time my friend.

@nikos @Olaf

I have the slogan of the day: piAROS connects people!

And that's a platform which actually makes sense, not just for the sake of it. I think AROS fits right in.

@aha
I see on the German-language forum amiga-news.de that the Wi-Fi problem persists. I've filed an issue on the aros-team github.
