I'm trying to boot the ISO in VirtualBox but in Vesa Mode the screen is black. What configuration do I need. Will it boot from the ISO ?

On VMware it starts AROS x86 v11 without problems, as soon as I finish updating the ISO of AROS One 64 v11, I will do some Testing on VirtualBox and check what configuration is needed.

Thanks. I tried to boot in VMWare Workstation instead.

It boots fine into the Live CD and it works fine so far but unfortunately no mouse. How do I configure GRUB ?

On VMWare even in Ubuntu the network connection is problematic.

I'm still trying to get my mouse to work in GRUB. The initial GRUB menu items don't work. I can't use mouse or keyboard for GRUB either.

I suppose I can't edit GRUB on the ISO. So I need an ISO with mouse hidd enabled.

@Amiwell
You say you boot from pendrive (USB Flash?). Did you have to edit GRUB for the mouse & keyboard?

On VMWare the Network works fine, only with AROS 64 v11 it does not work.

On VMWare with x86_64 v11, you should have no problem with Mouse, it works fine for me !

I Use the ISO of AROS One x86_64 v11, I am also setting up the GCC run.
 
However on the reference build in the Grub, the Command "module /Devs/Drivers/i8042.hidd" is present.

Ok. I seem to be missing something here. Everyone else seems to be using Flash Drives.

Here's what i did. I downloaded alpha3 ISO then I used the Live CD in VMWare. It booted into AROS & I have both mouse & keyboard. So I will start from there.

Maybe I will start my own distro just for fun? AROS Vanill x86-64 ? Let's start compiling...

The way you use the iso with your virtualization software is the way it should be done.

The flash drive part comes in when you use the VM booted from the ISO and then install AROS onto a flash drive.

It is required to make the flash drive partitioned the Amiga way and which uses the Amiga filesystem. Once you have that done you can then use the flash drive to try and boot the installed AROS distribution directly on your hardware.

And by the looks of it, that seem to fail for some people.

afaik grub does not support mouse but it should detect the keyboard so that you are able to select a grub option or modify the grub entry. If you try to use the grub menu from the VM (when you boot the ISO) then it might require some additional VM setup in order to make your keyboard work that early in the boot process with grub (for VBox I have/had to setup USB filtering correctly, not sure if that is still required) but your mileage may vary.

Everything is good so far. i'm still working on the icons. Copying icons in the shell is no fun. I need IconClone for ABIv11.

I've noticed that USB support is a little touchy at times. The first time the USB is attached it's ok. After that it requires a reboot of AROS.

Maybe the USB issue is particular to VMWare.

Regarding Icons, for the moment you can configure icons on Other OS, AROS x86 or OS3 RTG

Regarding USB devices, with VMware "only" with AROS 64 v11, if you leave the USB device Mounted, on reboot the system struggles to start, so you don't have problems, before closing AROS you have to disable (unmount) the USB device.

@miker1264

Also when you try running GCC you will get a crash in C library. I will fix this over weekend.

Here is fix for GCC crash:
