Requirements

In order to get AmiKit working, you'll need:

• A PC computer, a rather fast one. At least 256MB of RAM is recommended (otherwise decrease the RAM size in WinUAE config). AmiKit was created using the (old) AthlonXP 2500+ where the boot process of AmiKit takes about 12 seconds (or 10 seconds more with unregistered Directory Opus Magellan II, see limitations).
• Gfx card capable of displaying 32bit screenmodes.

 In short the AmiKit simply flyes on a current up-to-date hardware!

• Windows system capable of running WinUAE - the UAE Amiga Emulator. The WinUAE 1.5.2 is already part of the AmiKit package. Use the Add-On to install a newer version to AmiKit automatically.
• The Linux users should refer here for more information.

• The source of AmigaOS3.x system files. AmiKit installation archive DOES NOT contain any copyrighted Amiga system files. These files will be copied from your original source to AmiKit during the installation procedure.
• AmigaOS ROM file (v3.1). You can obtain this from your „real“ Amiga with the help of ROM ripper/grabber software (see Aminet). Another possibility is to buy the Amiga Forever package which includes the ROM file.

   Get both AmigaOS and Amiga ROM file in one package here!
