Yes! Let me know how it is. Also, are you installing it under another OS, or natively?

Natively. It's a pain to install. The installer needs a lot of work so you have to partition the drive manually (which is a little funky because they stick an RDB inside a PC MBR partition). That's about as far as I've gotten. The nightly build I have seems to be missing the format64 command so I haven't been able to format the drive.

There seem to be some drawing bugs either in Intuition or Zune. Widgets don't seem to un-grayout properly and sometimes you'll end up with artifacts from other windows on buttons. I'm currently limited to only 16 colors in 640x480. It seems that the old SVGA card I grabbed doesn't have a proper VESA BIOS. Biggest thing I'm looking to try out is the new networking support as that's what's kept me from using it at all before. Overall, it still has a ways to go before it's ready for prime time, but it's getting more useable all the time.

Hmm, well I hear the version running under Linux is a lot more usable, but of course that's not what I'd refer to as a real OS. Also, now that the GUI layer from MorphOS has been open-sourced, maybe the AROS team can incorporate that.

edit - hey, 16 colors, 640x480 - no worse than running Workbench on an ECS machine! ;) Probably a bit slower, though...

I'm pretty sure that the license on that GUI layer is incompatible with the AROS license. It could be added to the contrib section, but it can never be a part of the core operating system unless it gets a new license.

Still, the GUI in AROS isn't that broken. I would imagine if there weren't so many other things that need attention that it would get fixed relatively quickly.

Except that the old Workbench releases were designed to run in 16 colors. Aros has all the;se pretty hi-color icons that look absolutely terrible in 16 colors.

EDIT: Turns out the rendering errors I refered to only occur in VGA mode. I threw my Voodoo 3 3000 from my Amiga in my AROS box and the problems went away. Still haven't managed to format the drive yet.
