Anyone know if PiAmiga is still being developed, and how stable is it?

... DOS=HIGH? I knew it was on something...

It is, and I believe it is up to v4 at the moment, Chris Edwards is handling it. If you Google PiMiga4 you will get a lot of info. It's a VERY LARGE download and will take some time, but is worth it.. I am about to re-purpose a 8GB 4b to be a PiMiga setup...

Check out the YouTube channel "Chris Edwards Restoration" - he's the guy that makes PiMiga (99% sure on this). In fact, 10 days ago he posted a video about a PiMiga 4 preview. So, I think it's definitely still being developed :)

As for stability, can't tell ya, but seems worth trying out.

Chris Edwards Restoration:

It's a *huge* download, though and requires at least a 64Gb sd card.

Personally I think it's to bloated!

How does this compare to AmiKit?

Will do... Guess I just need to google. :>

I've never really run Amikit, I installed it at one time in a VM and never really investigated it to closely. PiMiga I spent a little more time with because I had a pI sitting around gathering dust. I hope to do a little more playing with PiMiga soon..

... A social life? Where can I download that!?

AmiKit is great but IMO it's also a bit bloated.

My preference is to install Amiga OS 3.2.2 and mod it from there to build a decent workbench. Alternatively you can take a fresh Amiga OS 3.2.2 install and use "BestClassicWB" (it's on EAB but google is your friend here) to automatically build an excellent workbench/OS experience. And it's lightweight.

Thanks for the tip.

I have a PI 400 coming in. currently dont have 3.2.2. I have 3.1 which I got from Amiga Forever.

Looks like the only way to get 3.2.2 is to order on disc?

Some delaers offer the option to download the cd as a iso, and will ship
the cd to you.

I found these dealers the other day.... Wasn't sure they offered a digital copy.

I will consider it once I feel I can get a stable install working.

I have nuked PiMiga and installing from scratch and just learning the OS at the moment.
