AROS rom versus AROS adf version mismatch

Now that i have disk space i can build aros, for arm target or for 68k rom customization.

But need time, i am trying to leave bellatrix at least in an “usable” state and return to that latter.

One option to avoid the cd support would be some scripting like emu68 imager.

The bad of work with this is that is adictive and allways has one more thing.

I think that maybe i should focus only on the rdb support, and stop there for now. (The stop line was booting aros, and it allready does from adf… But we allways want a little more)

How are ROMs integrated?

Well, me more less, the AIs, but Yes im doing it.

The Roms use the same Emu68 loading style: initramfs

I build it on top of Emu68 (i dont have the jit yet, but i reuse the emu68 baremetal init/setup)

My initial idea was only do the chipset, but that was not enough, so i also need a machine.

In theory emu68 could load a custom aros 68k file and work, but thats another story.

Emu68 allready have driver for the sdcard, but im not sure if i use it as it is (z3) or adapt to (z2)

Anyway, i Will need some files on the sdcard to test it. (It should be easier than CD-ROM)

Regards,
Ps: The idea of CD-ROM was exactly to access the hd(sdcard) and copy the files to, but i could try to populate the rdb partition of the sdcard in other way.

I was thinking of look into this

https://github.co.../tree/main

Or anyway that i can populate the amiga partition of the sdcard and make the rom boot from there.

Ps2: i should try use winuae for this (it seems that there are way of move from one winuae supported format to the emu68 sdcard rdb partition, i need to learn more of this)

Probably i Will get a distro, convert to this format and than to the sdcard. Lets see how it goes.

Ps3:bingo 😁

This should solve my problem
https://github.co.../hdf2emu68

Seems that hdf is the Nice format to have.

@AMIGASYSTEM - For the WinUAE tests, you'll need either a directory or a hard file; if you have any problems, I can make an ISO for you.


No @AMIGASYSTEM , i think i Will try to make a hdf from your files

(And than a sdcard image https://github.co.../hdf2emu68 )

Question: can i make the hdf or the img of your files public for download?

I'll create an Filesystem SFS HardFile Bootable for you containing the distributable version of AROS One 68k; I'll get it ready for you tonight.
