Re: Hey there!
@ntromans In fact, after retrying Netgear W111v3, it now works fine on AROS One v1.2 64-bit, even without using the old startet/stopnet/startnet trick.

Re: Hey there!
For Wi-Fi and to avoid using up your phone, there's the Netgear W111v3 dongle.

Re: Hey there!
I don't think you'll have problems only with Wi-Fi and LAN for sure

Re: Hey there!
Hi, Can you give us the model? In most eras, it is ethernet, usb, audio are the main issue. Wifi probably a no go. In the bios, secure boot will need to be disabled like most alternative OSs.

Hi, Welcome to Aros, let us know how you get on with the D430 as it was last tested around 2012. How are you finding Aros compared to Morphos so far? Would be interested in how you decide to go on the internet? Swap wifi card?

Re: Greetings!
I'm also going to install Aros One 32-bit on a laptop, to experience that version. As I understand more software is available on 32-bit, but 64-bit is perhaps the future? :) Have a Dell Latitude D430 that should be up to the task, just upgraded from a HDD to SSD disk and maxed with 2GB RAM. Nice 12" screen and ultra-portable.

Re: Greetings!
Thanks @retrofaza and @deadwood, removing the Nvidia card did the trick. Now boots 64-bit fine (with both USB stick and DVD rom). Now installing from the USB drive, will give an update when all us up and running.

Re: Greetings!
Hello and welcome ZenTac, With regards to your booting problem, my first suggestion would be to remove the nVidia card and use internal one. nVidia driver is not yet ported to 64-bit and you can actually get better VESA performance with build-in video rather then external nVidia card. If that does not help, disconnect other hardware like SDD and CDROM and disabling audio and network cards in BIOS and try booting from USB pendrive. If that does not help either, we can start more detailed debugging :)

Re: Greetings!
For me, on the same motherboard, AROSOne 1.2 boots without any problems from a USB flash drive. I use the image from this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VroV1IG6gSxmwOjkp9GJHyGcyUyZT1fT/view?usp=drive_link Make sure you boot from the USB 2.0 port. Test whether the same effect occurs without a graphics card (on the integrated card). Try selecting the safe mode option in GRUB.

Re: Greetings!
Hi, all! Great to be a part of this forum. I am looking forward to get more into AROS. Have a few retro Amigas (500, 1200, 2000), and have been using MorphOS on a few PowerMacs the last year or so. But really interesting to get running on a Intel based x86 platform! Currently I am running Aros One 64-bit in VirtualBox (running on a Linux host), that works quite nice - installed it this week. I am also putting together a new box to run Aros One natively, so far I have got: - Asus P8Z68-V LX motherboard (as I see is recommended) - 16 gigs of DDR3 RAM - Intel i5 2400 CPU (will upgrade to an i7 3770k processor that I have in store) - GeForce GTX550 TI GPU (with a 7900 GS as a backup) - 128GB SSD disk (SATA) - DVD rom (SATA) Latest version of Aros One 32-bit (2.) works great - boots from DVD, installs and can boot from SSD But with the 64-bit version (1.2) I am struggling to install from both DVD and USB-stick. I get the GRUB loader, but the PC just reboots - both in standard and safe mode. So this needs more investigation! :) Any tips and tricks are very welcome! best regards ZenTac

I bought an HP Z400 for less than €100, then I got a graphics card and a compatible network card.
