| Great work Paolo and all of the developers that put so much time into this worthwhile project. Aros is a great piece of development that not only allows non ppc owning people to have access to the nicest fast OS around but also give the PPC owning Amiga fans some great code to work with to improve their great experience.
Cannot say how much I love you guys for working so hard on this and helping to keep the Amiga dream alive for those with intel hardware. _________________ Amiga 1000, 3000D Toaster, Checkmate A1500 Plus  http://www.checkmate1500plus.com/

This is good news, as it hopefully means I will no-longer need a second (not so good) emulator to get sound on AROS.Last edited by ChrisH on 16-Oct-2011 at 09:09 AM.

| Good stuff, thanks for everyone's continued efforts. I only wish I could keep focus on something for a period of time that doesnt warrant being mocked by goldfish :) |

| Nice update, Thanks.
But it would be nice to see OWB for AROS updated. Maybe port OWB-MUI to AROS... _________________ AmigaOS 4.x Beta Tester - Classic Amiga enthusiast - http://www.hd-zone.com is my Amiga Blog, check it out!

| Cool!!!
As a matter of fact, I await an USB Pendrive bootable version, coming to me via a post in order to try it on my CD-drive-less netbook. That's the only of my three PC machines that supports WiFi vendor-tailored stack (Atheros), just couldn't install the damn thing via USB-plugged CD drive (though a friend of mine told, it is possible but needs some hacking...). Anyway I'd be happy to have it dual boot soon.
Just a question since it's coming soon, I'd like to be kept up-dated as it comes to major and minor AROS builds when they're released. Is it suggested or at least safe to do an upgrade from within a system? Until now, I have a serious mental problems in doing an in-system upgrade in Ubuntu, I think I might do such with Windows (Vista and upwards). Can AROS handle that?
Thx for suggestions. One more - is my then-other-installed-system safe, too, while doing an AROS upgrade?  _________________ Amiga 1200 + WARP 1260 + AmigaOS 3.2

Icaros has already been installable and bootable from pendrives for a (long) while, the fixed issue is with updating only. It's strange you couldn't install it using a USB CD drive (I hope you meant DVD DRIVE, CDs are not enough), Poseidon can easily handle this kind of hardware. If it may help, I noticed that the port where you connect your peripherals matter. For instance, on my netbook I couldn't even boot the Icaros DVD if I plugged the drive in a port Poseidon disliked. Try changing port and be sure it's a DVD drive.

You can easily update any AROS installation by replacing older files with newer from any nighlty build. I have chosen to limit this feature on Icaros, though, because I had people complaining that after an update this or that thing stopped working. So I decided you can update Icaros with official update packs only. Individual files may always be replaced by hand, though, if you konow what you're doing. Please also notice that the "Extras" directory structure of Icaros Desktop is quite different from the one in the nightlies, and that icons are completely different. |
