An even cheaper option ($2) if you have an Android device is to buy Amiga Forever Essentials. They get extracted to a folder on the filesystem, then you could just hook your phone up to your PC and copy the ROMs off.
Can confirm. I bought it, zero problems, got loads of different legit roms for different systems, plus different Workbench versions as well. Roms work fine with FS-UAE.
when i have the original amigas still in my posession (i still have the A1000,A500+, A4000 in my attic) then they can stfu when i download what i already paid for....:)
I need help please... My partner/bf is quite involved in the Amiga scene, organizing demo parties and what not. Now, I wanted to surprise him and make a really simple demo. I thought that with a little help from ChatGPT and Youtube that can't be too hard, but I can't get this sh** to work... What I've got: I've downloaded ROMs from amiga forever and FS-uae (sitting with a new mcbook air) and copied the roms into the fs-uae folder - so far so good. I got in the Workbench but not further... It was just a hand holding a disc. So ChatGPT told me to download AMOS pro which I did. I downloaded Amos pro 2.0 6 files plus 3 update files and copied them all into the fs-uae folder for floppy discs. I then thought it worked as I could access Amos and start coding BUT I can't save files as I can't write an ":" in the program, I get a syntax error very often (might be ChatGPTs fault though) and other bugs. So I guess I've installed something wrong. I then found a Youtube video of installing AMOS and starting setting everything up just like he does. BUT in the FS-uae launcher, he opens a "boot" file into the hard drive site. I can't find a boot file anywhere though - neither on my computer with the downloads or on the internet (as far as I can judge) - so I'm stuck.
I'm very sorry to bother you with beginners-questions that surely are annoying but I'm stuck and I'd really like to make an effort. What did I do wrong? What did I miss? Where the hell am I and how do I get this shit to work? Also, is there somewhere I can learn easy coding commands for AMOS? I'm starting to think that ChatGPT is not as good at it as it thinks...
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!! It's hugely appreciated!

You can get them for next to nothing with Amiga Forver
Okay. Will the value edition be adequate? I mainly just want to play some games.
Jebus ... don't pay money to copyright trolls for software they didn't write 35 years ago.
Here, I uploaded ks1.3 and ks3.1 for you: http://mutantstargoat.com/~nuclear/tmp/amiga_roms/ Use 1.3 for the A500, 3.1 for A1200.
You can find more versions everywhere on the web, just search. But these are probably all you'll ever need.

AmigaOS ownership is legally disputed.
Please do not support the cartel.
Instead, you can get amiga firmware from archive dot org.
Yes

In time i found them all.
so why don't you share your findings
On many different pages. But I can't remember them all.
Search kick13.rom at your favorite search engine. Then kick31.rom
Kick13.zip and kick31.zip might also give you some light on your problem…
Some shady person described torrent trackers as an illegal source to conduct this endeavour.
when i have the original amigas still in my posession
(i still have the A1000,A500+, A4000 in my attic)
then they can stfu when i download what i already paid for....:)
For God's sake, get them out of the attic and into a cool, dry location.
KFC.gov
have a look at pimiga 1.5 on a raspberry pi 400 on youtube.
if you're a beginner, it's a great way to start.
I have AmigaForever/C64 Forever/ and the android release to ease my conscience.
If you own a real amiga use https://aminet.net/package/util/misc/GrabKickDisk
Otherwise it's the high seas.
