Hello folks,
This evening I shared the news concerning the new AmigaOS 4.1 FE installation package (Flower Pot) for Windows and Mac. I decided to try it out, since I don’t have AmigaOS 4.1 FE on my new PC yet. Having already a copy of the OS, as well as ROM’s from my old installation, I bought the Flower Pot package right away.
The installation was quite straight forward. Downloaded the package, copied the necessary files (AmigaOS 4 ISO, ROM’s..) to the directory on my HD as per instructions and then ran the Flower Pot tool. This tool took care of the rest, the only thing I needed to do was basically to click next and select a language for my keyboard. 🙂 After a short time, AmigaOS 4 was up and running on my PC. Incredible! I give a 6 out of 6 to AmiKit for this package, no doubt.
I’m very excited about this right now and will probably be a bit more down to Earth tomorrow, but hey.. it’s allowed to be happy about a product that actually works right of the bat. 😉
Have a good weekend guys and thanks for visiting my blog.
Now… back to AmigaOS 4! 😀
I’ve given up on using Amiga Forever as a base for OS4. 1; it never works the way it should.
Can you install the 4. 1 updates using Flower Pot? And how about adding other drives or expanding the one that FlowerPot uses? For example, installing FlowerPot with a 4GB drive with 3 partitions?

Hi and thanks for commenting. 🙂 Yes, that should work. I installed FE Update 1 on FlowerPot here without problems. If you want more information, I highly recommend checking out Epsilon’s guide covering the installation of FlowerPot.
