"OpenBench" seems nice.

http://lilliput.amiga-projects.net/FreeBench.htm

There is not a download on that page, but more of a short summary of what was my inital project and the results achieved.

I have the resulting adf image somewhere in an ancient backup. But to be honest, it would not be that useful anymore.

I am eager to help you, or anyone for that matter, or answer any related question to help you on your own journey if you wish to.

My adventure ended up in being caught too much into the inner workings of AmigaOS, and becoming part of the AmigaOS Team(68k) since 2017.

In any case, I always thought it would be attractive asking Hyperion for free redistribution permission of a basic set of AmigaOS system files for developers and users to enable everyone to offer their software creations in a bootable medium with some basic functionality (of course, not a complete OS).
hehe did you see my post about calling it FreeBench that's so funny.
Please take a look its in the Zone, and if you feel like adding to it please do.
I do feel it maybe superseded by AROS completely one day but it's just a bit of fun.
