We need to get in touch with Amilator of PPL board!!! He can help a lot building a distro with all the possible driver, or maybe Frode can help building for us "his" distro obviously not officially supported. I can guess that he is already busy with FS-UAE but maybe can do the job on Saturday evening like Amilator does. For what I've read doesn't required too much time. Anyway is really fantastic have a a laptop running Amiga like a real Amiga or better, don't you ? |

I inserted 2.8.3 "fs-uae" file to usr/bin and repacked but when about to start FS-UAE it restarts PC. There are a lot of files but i don't know where they should go.

No it is crashing for the moment. Here is the script that starts emu
#!/bin/bash source /amilator/funcs.sh dbus-launch pulseaudio --start --system fs-uae "/amiga/configs/$UAE_CONFIG_FILE" --fullscreen log_info "starting emulation: 'fs-uae /amiga/configs/$UAE_CONFIG_FILE --fullscreen'" pulseaudio -k config is chosen inside funcs.sh script: UAE_CONFIG_FILE=amiga-1200.fs-uae and in host.props file on USB (configs folder) if [ -e /amiga/configs/host-props ]; then source /amiga/configs/host-props I guess this pulseaudio is not working on my system.

I managed to put newer fs-uae to the filesystem, repack and boot USB normally at last. I can't see anywhere fs-uae version but I guess it's 2.8.3 now.

Also, I'm no expert on UAE, I'm more used to dealing with real Amigas so there is highly likely to be things wrong in this config. You'll obviously also have to change paths and it references USB stuff that is plugged into my system like flight sim controls. |

Here you go - my config from Amilator. Not 100% working, there is no sound. I don't know why because I haven't spent much time with it. There could be other faults too.
It is actually mostly just the same as one of the configs that was already in the Amilator config folder. (I had to add an additional '.uae' to the file name to be able to upload it) |

Download this and put in inside live folder in USB replacing the old one. It should work with FS-UAE 2.8.3.

@MartinW
Thanks even with your config OS4.1 it does not start, maybe I miss something, i have cat eye message "Waiting for bootable media" despite the Hardfile and Kickstart path being exact; what did you add in the pendrive? @nobody Perfect, your filesystem.squashfs works fine, AFA OS has started up fast Last edited by AMIGASYSTEM; 11 November 2017 at 21:56. |

Can we keep the window stuff in the windows section, I don't think wasting $100 on a license for a bloated unstable OS is quite on topic. |

What distro is everyone starting with? I'm not a fan of debian/rasbian, I've always stuck with Slackware and if I want a small fast booting install just do the bare minimum. I have an old mini itx board running entirely from a 128M CF card. It may be beneficial to start somewhere like that or arch or linux from scratch and build a very minimal distro.

Well, so far in this thread we are starting with the build that someone posted last year to a Polish forum called Amilator. Due to it's age that has MBR / BIOS based Debian 8 and so that is what we are using.
I agree that it would be nice to have something that is a bit more up to date and in particular supports EFI boot, but I think half the appeal of Amilator is that it runs on a USB stick after just adding your config files etc., and can be moved from one computer to another. I get the impression it isn't really intended to be installed to HDD. As someone said fairly early on in the discussion about this, if you want to do that then you may as well just pick your distro of choice, install the bare minimum needed for FS-UAE and then modify the xinit.rc startup to boot straight into FS-UAE with your chosen config. I'm just playing out of curiosity really. It's not of much use to me. If I want OS3.9 I have a cracking real system next to me with 060 etc. and as nice as it is for playing with OS4.1, no compositing GPU limits what you can do somewhat so apart from a bit of tinkering, I guess waiting for the A1222 is the best way to go there. |

I was going before that, back to the original post that ask can fs-uae be made to run like x distro which died. There are a lot of live distros that can boot from USB/DVD so we don't have to limit to one that died. Another thing to consider is a distro that will not only boot on x86 but supports the rasberry pi as well. I wouldn't mind using AROS but you can't seem to get AROS for the Pi without signing up for some cloud service.
