<h1>Running AmigaOS in 2026: MiSTer FPGA vs Amiberry on Pi</h1>
<div class="detail-content">
<p>AmigaOS 3.2.3 runs beautifully both on FPGA and on modern ARM boards, the question is which trade-offs you're willing to accept.

<p>AmigaOS 3.2.3 runs beautifully both on FPGA and on modern ARM boards, the question is which trade-offs you're willing to accept. Both approaches have their place, and the choice often comes down to what you're trying to do: run demos at perfect timing, or tinker with software at higher resolutions. If you're weighing up the hardware options themselves (Vampire V4, A600GS or MiSTer) rather than the OS, head over to the <a href="/retro/amiga-modern-platforms/">hardware comparison</a>.</p>
<h2>Two Roads to the Same Workbench</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>MiSTer with the Minimig-AGA core</strong>, the most hardware-authentic option. Native resolution tops out around 800×600, with RTG (Picasso96) support pushing that up to 1080p. Timing accuracy and near-zero input latency make it the pick for demos and cycle-sensitive software.</li>
<li><strong>MiSTer with the <a href="/retro/mist-mister-fpga/">Minimig-AGA core</a></strong>, the most hardware-authentic option.

Timing accuracy and near-zero input latency make it the pick for demos and cycle-sensitive software.</li>
<li><strong>Amiberry on a Raspberry Pi</strong>, the flexible option. Running headless (no X11 desktop, straight from the console/KMS framebuffer) is the single biggest performance lever, the difference between a laggy desktop and a snappy 60fps Workbench.</li>
<li><strong>The HDF minefield</strong>, hard disk image files either carry an RDB partition table or they don't, and getting the geometry parameters (surfaces/sectors/reserved blocks) wrong produces the classic "Not a DOS disk in device DH0" error. Reformatting through HDToolBox from a fresh install is often faster than debugging geometry math.</li>
<li><strong>Picking a monitor</strong>, a 4:3 panel at native 1280×1024 (like an older NEC MultiSync) gives the most period-accurate Workbench experience; anything widescreen needs scaling compromises.</li>
