If you are a user wanting to try AROS, please use the links in the
Distributions section to download a fully-featured AROS distribution.
The nightly builds you will find at the bottom of the page are only meant
for developers and testers. The nightly builds are not configured to be
easily used, are not always stable, and they are missing most of the
applications essential to a regular user experience.
Distributions are preconfigured, and tested, versions of AROS. They
contain a lot of useful 3rd party applications that don't come with the
default AROS.org binaries, and will be of great interest to users.
They often may not have the latest core system components, but should
offer better stability and user-friendliness than the nightly builds. If
you are a user interested in checking what AROS has to offer, you are
highly recommended to use distributions, to get the most complete
AROS experience.
Icaros Desktop LIVE!
Icaros Desktop LIVE! is a complete distribution of the AROS desktop
operating system for x86 based PC's. It comes on a bootable live DVD-ROM or CD-ROM that runs directly on your
PC (its hardware components must already be supported by AROS) or in a virtual machine such as
VMWare or
VirtualBox. It can be installed on the hard drive and can coexist with
installed OSes such as Microsoft Windows, in a dedicated partition. A quick reference guide and some AROS PDF manuals
are included.
AspireOS
AspireOS is a lightweight distribution, originally
designed for x86 based netbooks such as the Acer Aspire One. It tries to keep things as simple as possible. The
programs included are well tested.
AROS Broadway
AROS Broadway is a native AROS distribution, built for the
'ARES' Computer line. This distribution should also work on any AROS compatible PC.
AROS Vision
The AROS Vision distribution is targeted at real M68k Amigas.
For the best experience, a powerful Amiga or an emulator such as WinUAE is recommended.
AROS One
AROS One is a x86 distribution which is based on Deadwood's ABI v0 release.
Additionally there's a preview of a 68k version.
Tiny AROS
Tiny AROS is distribution for x86 systems based on ABIv0 that looks like the workbench 3.1.
It installs in a few minutes but contains all the relevant software of the current scene. You can download extra packages separately.
If your distribution isn't listed but you feel it should be, contact the AROS Dev Team.
Nightly builds are done, as the name implies, every night, directly
from the Git repository, and they contain the latest code. However,
they have not been tested in any way and may contain bugs. Most of the
time, though, they work just fine. Download link
These builds are based on sources of the new ABI. They are not
compatible with existing AROS distributions or with the AROS software
available from The AROS Archives or Aminet.
Please report bugs you may discover while using these builds through the
issue tracker. For any other necessity, please feel free to contact us
through the AROS-Exec forums.
As with the nightly builds we keep a set of snapshots which are based
on sources of the ABIv0 branch on a separate download page. Download link
