Boot From SD

I just spotted this over on Facebook. Has anyone tried it yet? I currently am unable to as don't have my Vamp fitted.

There's no proper readme but it implies this allows us to finally boot from SD. A feature that was promised since launch and seems to have been ignored since.

If it does exactly that and works, any chance it can be included in the onboard KS ROM?

I wouldnt go so far as to say "ignored" ... they have been working on it for a while but there are bigger fish to deal with.

This is development done by Alynna who is apart of the Apollo OS team.  She has done some fine work to progress this.  She is working on making SD boot for both Apollo OS and Amiga OS.  Once it is working we can see how it can be integrated into KS.

I also want this feature!  :-)

Cheers Ronnie, good to hear. It's one feature I have been waiting a long time for so it'll be great to see implemented
