Amiga in a Raspberry Pi:3?
Aug 11th, 2016, 9:33pm
 
Interesting webpage. Emulate an Amiga 4000 (68040) on an R-Pi:3.
 
The Amiga was one of the best graphic systems out there for under $500, along with being one of the first machines to use UNIX within that price range.
 
This is one of the few Under 1GB downloads and does not mixes itself with other emulators like Retro Pi and Chameleon, which can only emulate an Amiga 600. It uses Raspbian to boot up the basic OS and then loads in the Amiga emulator and the Amiga KickStart OS.
 
Hope the link still works:  http://gunkrist79.wixsite.com/amibian
 
 
Problem: You need to get the Amiga ROMs and the OS from some 3rd company and it is not free. At best it is $10 for the basic set up which gives Amiga 1000/1200 compatibility. $50 for all the ROM and OS Versions up to the Amiga 4000 (last 68K Amiga before they went to PowerPC). And yo uneed to extract if from the Windows emulator they have it in.

Well the cowboy, like the red man, you had to leave your land
You can't raise your stock and plant your crop in the gumbo and the sand
Greed disguised as progress has put us to the test
They won't be glad until we're gone from our home out in the west
It's sad to see those good old days replaced with greed and doubt
Soon we'll leave the country, the campfire has gone out
Bid 'em all adieu, you can't turn the world about
The cowboy left the country, the campfire has gone out
