PiMiga 4, from Chris Edwards, was just released today... we usually get a new PiMiga right @ Christmas but this one is particularly special b/c it's not ONLINE for Raspberry Pi's this time - PiMiga 4 can run on an RPi 4 OR x86 machines; intel, amd, arm... all of em!
PiMiga 4 is a collection of Amiga software, tools, games, demos and MORE that runs on top of Amiberry and ScalOS (A modern Amiga compatible OS). A bonus of that is that it emulates Amiga, Apple, Atari and other retro machines perfectly - it will run any of your Amiga software with ease - and it comes jam packed w/ Amiga stuff if you DON'T have software.

All you have to bring is;
Raspberry Pi 4/400
(or an x86 machine)
64GB+ SDCard
(or USBStick & HDD on machine)
PIMIGA4.IMG
Amiga kickstarts ($1.99 from Clamato Android app, $20 from Amiga Forever)
Okok, yer in??? Watch Chris' PiMiga 4 release YouTube video: https://youtu.be/z8NB9-NZ9-c?si=qqrF1uFKEi1bHBPs
In the comments, you'll find a PIMIGA4.torrent file - and it will let you download the 35GB PIMIGA.IMG used to burn to an SDCard/USB Stick...
You can also head to 2oFB and search for "PiMiga_4.zip" and get *everything* you need... :P
I'm throwing it on both a Raspberry Pi 4 and an old x86 Mac Mini and I'll release my fun on YT at a later date - if yer into retro machines and
want to have a GREAT Amiga collection very easily, COME GET S0ME!
How is the stability?

Love this! I remember asking him about this on his stream once. He wasn't interested at the time. I'm glad he decided to make it work all
the way around. I own an actual Amiga so I will have to see if there is
a way to pull it off and put it in the actual Amiga.
I have installed this already on my Pi400 and it's been a little dissappointing...fortunately Mr. Edwards (via Discord) has been helping
me get it going....but it's a bit buggy overall in my experience. Still the support has been good and hopefully it gets all worked out.

??? Are you using the version 4 release? I had zero issues - what did
you run into?? You just have to copy a file called 'kick.rom' to the correct location and... boom.

No bluetooth! so on my pi setup that means no sound.
