- | |||
- | [[http://aros.sourceforge.net/|AROS]] is an open-source, cross-platform re-implementation of AmigaOS. It is based on the AmigaOS 3.1 API. AROS 68k (as well as AROS ARM) is binary-compatible to Amiga programs. AROS for other platforms is source-compatible to Amiga programs. **AROS 68k** is the recommended OS to run on the Vampire. | ||
- | |||
- | Advantages: | ||
- | |||
- | * Open-source | ||
- | * Free to use | ||
- | * Contains numerous enhancements compared to AmigaOS | ||
- | * Under active and continuous development | ||
- | * Supports most Vampire features out of the box | ||
- | |||
- | Similar to AmigaOS, AROS 68k consists of ROM-based components (Kickstart) and disk-based components. If you want, you can combine AROS components with AmigaOS components. For example: | ||
- | * You can load disk-based AmigaOS 3.x components on top of AROS Kickstart. | ||
- | * You can load disk-based AROS components on top of AmigaOS Kickstart 3.x. | ||
- | |||
- | Please refer to [[..amigaos|this page]] to learn how the Vampire works with Kickstarts. | ||
- | |||
- | AROS is free to download and use, but [[https://www.power2people.org/funds/aros/|donations]] to boost this Amiga platform are greatly appreciated. | ||
