Title: Bootable AMOS program
Post by: tarantino88 on August 08, 2018, 07:14:02 AM

Apologies if this has already been covered, but does anyone know how to create a self bootable AMOS (not Pro) program on a disk?
I know you can create an executable program using the compiler.
I seem to remember there was a way to do it without the compiler, by copying the LIBS folder onto a disk.
To complicate things a little I'm doing all this through and emulator (uae4all) on Android.

Thanks in advance.

I think the program u seek is "RAMOS" which is the runtime environment without the editor (or something like that)

Thanks for the reply Volvo.
I think I've finally got the compiler installed onto my AMOS program disk. 
I needed to extract the adf from the zip and then run the install for changes to work on the image.
From memory this creates an executable which I can call from a startup script once I've created a disk with a bit sector.
Hope these answers help others too.
