AROS Amiga-compatible OS now boots bare-metal on Raspberry Pi 32-bit and 64-bit ARM
↗
The Amiga-inspired AROS operating system has been ported to run directly on Raspberry Pi hardware without virtualization
This port removes the performance overhead of running AROS in a virtualized environment on Raspberry Pi. It provides a lightweight, Amiga-compatible OS option for ARM-based single-board computers, though software support remains limited compared to x86 versions

AROS now runs bare-metal on Raspberry Pi, eliminating previous Linux virtualization layer
Both 32-bit and 64-bit ARM versions are available, targeting Pi3 with Pi4 and Zero2W support discussed
ARM software ecosystem for AROS is less mature than x86, with many applications still needing recompilation
