Anyway the essential parts of Amiga's OS from 0.9 to 3.0 are basically bespoke versions of TriPos 68k (written by Dr Tim King of Metacomco at Cambridge University UK). Atari could quite easily have acquired TriPos for the ST range too. The Line A routines on GEM are god awful slow for graphical updates, they make Microsoft Windows source code look acceptable |

It's as if a Windows 7 equipped PC booted directly into the WinNT kernel from a ROM chip with some necessary DLLs + drivers included in that same ROM image and then loaded the rest off disk. |

Tested on my NTSC A1000 and boots to desktop, very nice. Keep up the good work.
Like everyone says, keyboard and floppy drive support will be appreciated. |

Did you use the emutos-kickdisk.adf floppy, or some softkick tool? I've already added a few things. I plan to publish a new snapshot soon. |

I used the emutos-kickdisk.adf file made on A1200, then boot like a kickstart. When doing soft reset with CTR A A it reboot to desktop right away.
This reminds me a video I have seen on youtube called KickTOS using original TOS roms [ Show youtube player ] and it looks like they got the floppy to work. |

And many thanks to Toni for WinUAE, which allowed me to accurately debug that stuff. Quote:
It will also work on EmuTOS, it is just a matter of time. IDE is already supported on A600/A1200 (at least on WinUAE). |

Any chance of SKICK support its a SoftKicker that should work on most Amiga's kick 2.x+
Are there any other SoftKickers suitable? http://aminet.net/package/util/boot/skick346 |

On the other side, on Atari machines EmuTOS (which is very versatile) is able to run in RAM (instead of ROM) when started from a boot floppy or from the hard disk. It will work equally well on Amiga as soon as someone writes a small loader from AmigaOS |

New snapshot: EmuTOS CVS-20120719
- Added keyboard acknowledges. Now the keyboard works fine with WinUAE >= 2.4.0, I hope it will also work on real hardware. It can be easily tested with File > Execute EmuCON. - Added support for battery backed-up real time clock. Now the EmuTOS welcome screen should display the real boot date and time. If there is no hardware clock, the build date is displayed instead, with 00:00:00 hour. - Added support for Zorro II/III Fast RAM, Slow RAM and A3000/A4000 motherboard RAM. To achieve that I have imported the AROS AutoConfig routines into EmuTOS, it works like a charm. Now the EmuTOS welcome screen should display the right amount of FastRAM (while ST-RAM means Chip RAM). - Added Shutdown support for WinUAE. From the desktop, File > Shutdown now exits WinUAE. - Added debug output support for the WinUAE log. However standard EmuTOS versions does not produce much debug output. Note that the WinUAE specific features requires the UAE Boot ROM, for example by checking uaeserial.device in the IO ports host settings. |

Sure. Just keep one of the Shift keys pressed at the EmuTOS welcome screen. It will stay until you release the key. |

@BlankVector
I can also confirm that it boot and has working keyboard support on my Minimig Amiga A500/A600 FPGA Amiga clone. I have not tested the A600 IDE support using the Minimigs hardfile emulation as I don't really have the Atari know how to setup a harddisk so I will have to leave that to someone else to test. So far things are looking good, would it be possible to have support for an non interlaced 2 black and white screen mode as well as interlace is a bit tiring on the eyes. |

Sure, I just need any 640x400 resolution with 1 plane. However, I'm really not familiar with Amiga hardware. If someone could write a proper initialization routine for such video mode, or at least point me to the relevant documentation, that would be big help. |
