Aros/Platforms/x86 Complete System HCL

Recommended hardware edit

While the following sections will give you a good overview of compatibility of AROS with a large number of hardware, this first section will list hardware that is recommended for use with 32-bit versions of AROS.

Recommended hardware is hardware that has been tested with latest release of AROS and is relatively easy to purchase second hand (ie. ebay). This hardware also comes with commitment that compatibility will be maintained with each future release.

If in future decision will be made to drop any of the recommended hardware from the list (for example due to it no longer being available for purchase), such hardware will move to list of legacy supported systems and will have an indicated end of life date so that users have time to switch to other hardware.

The following hardware has been tested with native x86 AROS and any issues have been noted. If you have encountered differently (i.e. problems, incompatibilities, faults, niggles, annoyances, environment, errors, review of setup etc) please update this information. Alternatively, an hosted OS (windows or linux) of AROS would give better results.


Works well Works a little Does not work May not applicable


  • 2006/2007 Dell Latitude D-series laptops - business class machines, good support in Aros, easy to replace wifi card
  • 2006 some Satellite Pro A200
  • 2008 For the tiny carry anywhere, the early run of Acer Aspire netbooks


Please bear in mind that AROS has only a few hardware driver developers, whilst Linux counts in the tens and Windows in the hundreds. So support is very slow after some improvement after 2005/6 for a few years.

So consequently, be aware that driver support on native is now a decade behind linux, MacOS(TM) and Windows(TM). 

Rough estimate from taking a random laptop notebook what you can expect from a Native install of AROS

Most vendor suppliers get OEM (original equipment manufacturers) to make their laptops. These brand name companies purchase their laptops from an ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) such as Quanta, Compal, Wistron, Inventec, Foxconn (Hon Hai), Flextronics and Asus (now Pegatron) with together 80% market share and MiTAC, FIC, Arima, Uniwill, ECS, Tonfang Origin and Clevo (remaining 20%).

  • One of the better options if re-partitioning of the hard disk is not suitable or wanted is to go with AROS hosted i.e. run a small linux distro and host AROS on top. AROS can exist on a Windows(TM) install as well. See here for more information Linux hosted and [ Windows hosted] with downloads here AROS download page
  • installation needs an USB optical drive or an USB pen drive (see below)
  • PC with CD or DVD to install to a USB pendrive for boot purposes on a netbook
  • SD card sometimes can [ boot] like Dell 2100, EeePC 1001P, ASUS EeePC 900, acer aspire one d150, MSI Wind U100,

  • Late 2002, USB2.0 added and slightly better AROS sound support (AC97) appeared
  • 2002-2005 and still, to a limited extent, ongoing bad capacitors
  • Late 2003, ATX PSUs moved from 5V to 12v rails (extra 4pin on motherboard for CPU)


  • Late 2005, PCI Express replaced AGP and HDAudio replaced AC97
  • Late 2007, ATX PSUs added extra 12V PCI-E connectors and 4+4pin for CPUs
  • Late 2010, USB3.0 appears on motherboards or needing a PCI-E motherboard slot
  • Late 2014 Hardware USB2 removed from USB3 chipsets

Jim Keller’s group designed x86 Zen CPU - new and covering the same AM4 platform/socket for desktop

Zen will also shift from Bulldozer’s Clustered Multithreading (CMT) to Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT, aka Intel’s Hyperthreading). CMT is the basis for Bulldozer’s unusual combination of multiple integer cores sharing a single FPU within a module, so the move to SMT is a more “traditional” design for improving resource usage

Trusted Platform Module, or fTPM, that Windows 11 requires. Ryzen processors using a firmware TPM are causing stutters, even when doing mundane tasks. To enable TPM 2.0 on your AMD system please follow the steps below.

    Power on system and press DEL or F2 to get into the BIOS.
    Navigate to Advanced\CPU Configuration.
    Enable AMD fTPM switch.
    Press F10 to save changes.

an industry standard DDR2 module could in theory contain fallback JEDEC, intel XMP and AMD EPP configuration data

Intel PC CL5 ram modules but an "AMD" CL5 ram module the BIOS cannot read the AMD EPP info on the SPD (Serial Presence Detect) but can recognize the CL5 timing info in the JEDEC data table. PC BIOS auto configures for the AMD ram module and boots normally.

an AMD PC CL6 ram modules but an "INTEL" CL6 ram module the BIOS cannot read the INTEL XMP info on the SPD but can recognize the CL6 timing info in JEDEC data table. PC BIOS auto configures for the AMD ram module and boots normally.

an INTEL PC needs CL6 ram modules but have an "AMD" CL4 ram module. INTEL BIOS cannot read the AMD EPP info on the SPD but can recognize the CL4 timing info in JEDEC data table. PC BIOS recognizes module timings as incompatible an refuses to boot.

entirely separate issue if the RAM module timing specs are incompatible.(i.e. CL4 RAM in a "CL6 only" PC)

Chromebooks edit

For most (EOL) Chromebooks, the recommended UEFI path forward is to:

  • put the device into Developer Mode
  • disable firmware write protection
  • flash MrChromebox's UEFI Full ROM firmware
  • install ChromeOS Flex, Linux, etc


See MrChrome, MrChrome and the chrultrabook subreddit for more info


ChromeOS has several different boot modes, which are important to understand in the context of modifying your device to run an alternate OS:

  • Normal/Verified Boot Mode
       Can only boot Google-signed ChromeOS images
       Full verification of firmware and OS kernel
       No root access to the system, no ability to run Linux or boot other OSes
       Automatically enters Recovery Mode if any step of Verified Boot fails
       Default / out-of-the-box setting for all ChromeOS devices
  • Recovery Mode
       User presented with Recovery Mode boot screen (white screen with 'ChromeOS is missing or damaged' text)
       Boots only USB/SD with signed Google recovery image
       Automatically entered when Verified Boot Mode fails
       Can be manually invoked:
       On Chromebooks, via keystroke: [ESC+Refresh+Power]
       On Chromeboxes, by pressing a physical recovery button at power-on
       On Convertibles/Tablets, by pressing/holding the Power, Vol+, and Vol- buttons for 10s and then releasing
       Allows for transition from Verified Boot Mode to Developer Mode
       On Chromebooks/Chromeboxes, via keystroke: [CTRL+D]
       On Convertibles/Tablets, via button press: Vol+/Vol- simultaneously
       Booting recovery media on USB/SD will completely repartition/reformat internal storage and reload ChromeOS (as well as some RW firmware components)

Note: The ChromeOS recovery process does not reset the firmware boot flags (GBB Flags), so if those are changed from the default, they will still need to be reset for factory default post-recovery.

  • Developer Mode
       "Jailbreak" mode built-in to every ChromeOS device
       Loosened security restrictions, allows root/shell access, ability to run Linux via crouton
       Verified Boot (signature checking) disabled by default, but can be re-enabled
       Enabled via [CTRL+D] on the Recovery Mode boot screen
       Boots to the developer mode boot screen (white screen with 'OS verification is off' text), from which the user can select via keystroke where to boot:
           ChromeOS (in developer mode) on internal storage ( [CTRL+D] )
           ChromeOS/ChromiumOS on USB ( [CTRL+U] )
           Legacy Boot Mode ( [CTRL+L] )

Boot screen displays the ChromeOS device/board name in the hardware ID string (eg, PANTHER F5U-C92, which is useful to know in the context of device recovery, firmware support, or in determining what steps are required to install a given alternate OS on the device.

  • Legacy Boot Mode
       Unsupported (by Google) method for booting alternate OSes (Linux, Windows) via the SeaBIOS firmware payload / RW_LEGACY firmware region
       Accessed via [CTRL+L] on the developer mode boot screen
       Requires explicit enabling in Developer Mode via command line: sudo crossystem dev_boot_legacy=1 (installing RW_LEGACY firmware via the Firmware Utility Script will set this for you)
       Not all ChromeOS devices are capable out of the box, most require a RW_LEGACY firmware update first
       Boots to the (black) SeaBIOS splash screen; if multiple boot devices are available, a prompt to show the boot menu will be displayed.

Note: If you hear two beeps after pressing [CTRL+L], then either your device doesn't have a valid Legacy Boot Mode / RW_LEGACY firmware installed, or legacy boot capability has not been been enabled via crossystem.

Using the ChromeOS Firmware Utility Script to update your device's RW_LEGACY firmware region will address both of these issues, as it not only provides an updated, fully functional RW_LEGACY firmware, but also sets the required boot flag.



https://www.howtogeek.com/278953/how-to-install-windows-on-a-chromebook/

Chromebooks don’t officially support other OSs. You normally can’t even install as Chromebooks ship with a special type of BIOS designed for Chrome OS. But there are ways to install, if you’re willing to get your hands dirty and potentially ruin everything


Firmware Compatibility


Most older Chromebooks need the write-protect screw removed in order to install MrChromebox's firmware that allows you to install other operating systems. Most newer Chromebooks don't work in the same way as there is no write-protect screw on them.

Here is the list of hardware that the GalliumOS supports and information on getting Gallium OS on to those devices


Development on GalliumOS has been discontinued, and for most users, GalliumOS is not the best option for running Linux due to lack of hardware support or a kernel that's out of date and lacking important security fixes.
