@AmigaBlitter

Compared with 10000 downloads made by Amikit for the same platform I would consider it a success!

There is a problem with ata.device that is currently being worked on.
Just try some of the next nightly builds. It might be fixed then.

Alternatively try this older AROS build wich should boot fine almost everywhere.

That's just unbelievable. Paolones has done a
very important job it seems.

It's a great success of VmwAROS LIVE. It doesn't need any platform compared to AmiKit. Needless to say AmiKit is not the standalone package. Additional files, like Amiga OS itself and ROMs, are required

@AmigaBlitter

That's impressive. Did AROS get any new developers because of this though?

Even that version doesn't work natively in my system. (They work only hosted.) There's always rapidly blinking keyboard leds and not much else. I can post more info here if needed.

I couldn't find any list what was fixed in the latest nightly build.

@AmigaBlitter
Makes you wonder what could have been if OS4 wasn't crippled to retarded, overpriced and unavailable hardware, and was instead sold for classics or an Amilthon or VM environment.
