<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. 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.</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>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>
