Hello. Google minions decided that the following links somehow hurt their "rules of the community", maybe for security reasons, maybe for copyright concerns, whatever. Since I am not going to loose my precious time trying to convince them of their obvious mistake, I will reproduce here the original links of the download page. Feel free to use torrents or other file sharing technologies to help distribution, but please keep it unmodified. Thanks for your collaboration and sorry for the issue. USE RIGHT CLICK and SAVE AS...
ICAROS DESKTOP LIVE!
The complete Icaros Desktop environment on a bootable live-DVD. It includes everything included in the Light edition, but adds dozens of applications like image editors, drawing programs, music composers, converters, programming languages and the whole AROS SDK with tools and libraries. It can run natively on your hardware, or hosted on Windows and Linux.
Current version: 2.3

ICAROS DESKTOP LIVE! PENDRIVE
An experimental version of the Light Distribution, targeted for pendrives. You just need a 2GB pendrive and a program like PassMark ImageUSB (https://www.osforensics.com/tools/write-usb-images.html) to restore the image (or a similar solution for Linux). Beware of the fact that your pendrive will be cleaned off completely with any data already available on it and, more over, any space available on bigger drives will be wasted, until you recover it by cleaning off the AROS partition and re-format the pendrive again.
Current version: 2.3

]NOTE: as our friend Magorium pointed out, PassMark ImageUSB places a 512 byte header before the actual partition. So, if you're using dd on a Linux environment to write the bin file to the USB pendrive, you must strip that header before writing:
dd bs=512 skip=1 status=progress if=icaros_light_2-3-0_pendrive.bin of=icaros_light_2-3-0_pendrive_OK.bin && sync
