this deserves a video at the end.

Given we have AROS, that is mostly AmigaOS compatible and has an ARM port, and that also has a classic Amiga port, it'd be fun to see the ARM version of AROS ported to this...

So the Amiga is a graphics card for Doom running on the Pi. Can we make that general purpose? Does Linux still have Amiga drivers?
mjg59•1h ago
I considered this and it's slightly awkward - the hardware isn't memory mapped so the drivers would all need to be adapted, and there's no realistic way it'd get upstream. There's also the problem that the Amiga is big endian and Linux on the Pi is little endian so even if you could memory map it you'd still need to byte swap everything. Not literally impossible, but a giant pain.
