Hi,

I could boot aros one from hdf, cant see it yet cause miss Rtg

I Will miss fable, it was great doing things, and there are still a lot of TODOs.

Anyway, no schedule and rocking 😁

Regards,

Ok, thanks, but no success.
If i use the hdf file i got the amiga cli, if i use the folder you sent previous i got an error.

If i try the hdf with bellatrix with 68000 i got an error, with 68020 aros stops at lowlevel.library

Regards,
ps: ok, success
if i just change the path to the folder (files you sent me previous it works), now i just need to confirm the hdf!

ps2: i found an issue with the emulator even before the hdf. aros rom doesnt start with 68020/68040. aros one needs at least 68020. as i said, a whole new world of tests!

Okay, I'm attaching my ArosOne-68k.uae file. If WinUAE is installed correctly, just double-click this file; otherwise, open it from the WinUAE GUI:
You just need to replace the ROM path and the HardFile path.

Very, very thanks @AMIGASYSTEM , a whole new world of tests ahead.
But first i will try it with winuae. (not really, i allready did some tests , i just want to see it working with winuae)
i have used the builtin aros rom with 68040 (as you mentioned before), but it didnt worked yet, is there any other setting i must tweak?

kind regards,

I got the name wrong You can rename it whatever you want; here's the link to download the AROS One 68k Lite hardFile:

Very thanks @AMIGASYSTEM !

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.

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?

Regards,

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.

are you developing Bellatrix?

How are ROMs integrated?

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)

Hi @OlafSch ,
Yes, i know aros vision, was my first search.

Bellatrix is “my own” emulator, it is inspired by emu68 (raspberry bare metal)

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

It allready does much more than i first expected, but the list of things todo never stops growing 😒

The two major goals are AROS and Emu68.

Thanks for the advice, maybe i should stay with amiberry or something like that. (It all starts with me plaing with bare metal and framebuffer, than i found omega and decided to give a try, that is bellatrix, the try to have aros plus emu68, far from that atm)

Ps: btw, the first aros distro ever was mine 😁

i do not know "Bellatrix" and do not know what it does, I have my own distribution on Aros 68k long before anyone else did anything with it. I would also recommend to use a modern emuator. Winberry could work, it also includes JIT. Or WinUAE. That it is so slow looks like no JIT

In ks3.1 it also appears.
But really, its in a bad shape (fps drops)

Hi @AMIGASYSTEM ,

I am not testing with winuae.
I dont know what is happening yet, but i got something using ks20
(Far from be anything good. It slowdown the emulation a lot)

Maybe i Will put a temporary hdf support.

I am completly lost atm (but the cd appeared with ks20) 😁

Regards,

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.

Thanks @AMIGASYSTEM ,
This is not what i had in mind, i was expecting an iso. i will try that latter.
The issue in the moment is the iso be recognized (and the rdb partition).

Regards,
(i downloaded it and have it here now)

I quickly put together a lightweight version of AROS One based on deadwood's latest AROS 68k build.
I left a few programs in there just for testing, but all the system applications are included.

No commercial Amiga software, for obvious reasons!

You can test it on WinUAE using the default configuration shown below:
Amiga 4000
CPU 060
RAM 512MB or 1GB,
UAE ZORRO III VRAM 512
Display 1024x768 Windowed Mode
Exspansions= bsdsocket.library

You can download AROS One from this link:

Hi @AMIGASYSTEM ,
First, thanks for doing The edition, learned that now (no smiley and code quoting).

I ordered a 1tb ssd, Will have space now (i was working with no space in disk, really a bad experience)

I searched for the aros one 68k but got lost on the entries.

I have 2 Nice resources: aros one 68k and emu68 imager.

I just need the minimun setup to test the sdcard boot setup, but have a full (small) distro could be handy.

I dont know yet how i Will do but have full workflow of aros is a main goal, could you confirm what is the latest link for aros one 68k?

Not have aros workbook booting was the block, but that is allready done (it was really intriguing me). Now i can see (visual feedback) about ATA devices (CD-ROM and hd) inside the amiga env.

Regards,

Ps: i am really curious to see how fast (slow) aros Will be (i dont like The idea of aros just be fast enough on winuae. That was the motivation, even without emu68, i am curious to see how it performance as in the actual musashi setup and aiming for a future, not yet near, with emu68/multicore)

Hi @AMIGASYSTEM ,

The problem was i was reporting ecs chipset id but without the registers so the blitter was going to the void.

Now that i have gfx it doesnt made much diferences if it is workbook or full aros.

It has other stuff, like p96 and booting support (ISO and sdcard), but i was very intrigued about why i didnt got gfx response before.

I would love to have a slim version of aros 68k, i had Said that before. But, for now, have the gfx output was really a (small) Victory.

Regards,

Ps: i have updated the readme with the current status (it can also be seen as a roadmap)

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

As i Said before, i have other things to be done before going foward with this, i was just very anoyed of not have aros working.
