Amiga Imager
Build bootable Amiga systems on macOS
One app for PiStorm, Classic Amiga, emulator workflows, and MiSTer builds, with native disk, floppy, and direct-write tools in the same macOS workflow.
Download FreeChoose your platform
PiStorm, Classic hardware, emulator setups, and MiSTer are all prepared from the same build flow — and every platform is validated on real hardware. Classic Amiga spans four decades of boards, so testing there covers the common configurations rather than every combination.
Raspberry Pi Accelerator
SD card images with a FAT32 boot partition and Amiga RDB data partitions. AmigaDiskKit now drives more of the PiStorm path directly, while Emu68 firmware, VideoCore RTG, board-specific boot handling, and Wi-Fi stay configured out of the box.
- Emu68 68040 emulation
- Board-aware handling for A1200 PiStorm32-lite, A600 PiStorm16, and PiStorm Classic
- Picasso96 VideoCore RTG - any RTG resolution
- Emu68 1.1 with a writable boot partition, updatable in place later
- Gigabit ethernet, optional Wi-Fi, and PiStorm USB
- FrameThrower and startup handling tuned for the selected board
Real Hardware
Pure RDB images for A500, A1200, A2000, A3000, and A4000. Optional accelerator cards, RTG card types, and SANA-II network adapters are staged automatically during the build.
- Stock and accelerated CPUs including 68030, 68040, and 68060
- Picasso96 RTG configuration handled at build time
- Vampire V4 and V2 with the Apollo 68080, SAGA RTG, and V4Net
- Roadshow TCP/IP with SANA-II drivers, online at boot
- Poseidon USB for Subway, Highway, and FreeWay
- CPU-correct library and compatibility selection
UAE, Amiberry, and Minimig
HDF-based workflows for MiSTer Minimig and UAE-family emulator setups, with companion configs written for WinUAE/Amiberry and FS-UAE, while platform-specific content stays filtered and ready to boot.
- MiSTer Minimig HDF images with clean platform filtering
- Companion .uae and .fs-uae configs, emulated CPU selectable
- MiSTer RTG and PPP networking
- Emulator-friendly output from the same build flow
Everything taken care of
Build, browse, update, and write Amiga systems – all from one native Mac app.
Several systems on one card
Put your own Workbench, Coffin, AmiKit, AGS and a games collection on one card. Amiga Imager copies their partitions from the images you already have – FFS, OFS and PFS3, soft links included – and keeps each system's own drive names, so no system sees another's partitions. Optional extras: a FAT32 exchange partition for files from a Mac or PC, and a rescue shell. Read the guide.
AmiBootLoader boot manager
Our own boot menu asks at power-on which system to start: keyboard, mouse or joystick, a countdown, and “keep” to start one system directly from then on. On a PiStorm it switches the Kickstart ROM and even the Emu68 version per system – AmiKit on Emu68 1.0.7 next to systems on 1.1 – and it can show the menu over HDMI. Boot Menu Prefs changes the menu from any running system.
Amiga File Manager
Browse images, SD, CF, and SSD media, ADFs, drawers, and LHA archives directly on macOS without booting an Amiga. Drag and drop between panes, see the real Workbench icons including GlowIcons, edit protection bits, comments, and tool types in an Information panel, and pack any drawer into an LHA archive.
Guided Build Wizard
A full-screen step-by-step build flow that walks through platform, OS media, packages, networking, and output media in a clearer order. It lowers the barrier for first-time builds while still fitting cleanly into the native workflow for more advanced setups.
Optional software packages
WHDLoad, IBrowse, AmiSSL, IMP3, iGame, AmigaAMP, RiVA, LumiFTP, StackAttack, MUI, Amelinium, and many more can be staged during the build. Point it at your WHDLoad collection and the games are already listed in iGame on first boot; the freeware ScummVM adventures can be installed ready to play.
amipkg package manager on every image
Your image is no longer frozen in time. Every build ships amipkg, a real package manager for AmigaOS 3.x with a CLI and two GUIs: amipkg upgrade keeps the installed software current on the running Amiga, and a signed catalog of 200+ programs is one click away.
Manage Amiga Software
Open an existing image or SD/CF card on the Mac to install, update, and remove packages without booting the Amiga. On PiStorm images it also updates Emu68 in place, with a backup and one-step Restore, so you never need to rebuild just for new firmware.
Amiga Fleet console
Every Amiga on your network running amiagent appears on one board: a live VNC screen, a remote Shell, drag-and-drop file transfer, and ARexx straight to the machine. Connections use TLS when the agent supports it.
Quick Look and Finder icons
Press Space on an HDF, ADF, or LHA in Finder to see its partitions and file tree. Finder draws Amiga .info icons and IFF/ILBM pictures as thumbnails, and Open With extracts or browses them in Amiga Imager.
AmigaDiskKit engine
AmigaDiskKit is the full native Swift implementation behind the core disk path: FFS, PFS3, ADF, LHA, and the PiStorm FAT32 workflow in one engine. It runs entirely in-process with nothing else to install: faster builds, cleaner verification, and no dependence on legacy tooling.
Greaseweazle and DrawBridge floppy support
Native floppy controller support for macOS that works out of the box. Read real disks straight into ADFs, write ADFs back, and browse floppy contents directly. With a Greaseweazle you can also capture raw flux (SCP) for low-level preservation or troubleshooting. Greaseweazle is tested on real hardware; DrawBridge support is new and not yet tested on hardware.
Build & Write to Card
Build straight to real SD, CF, or SSD media in one flow, skip the separate export step, and only write what actually needs to be written. The result is a faster path from settings to real hardware, with verification at the end.
A proper Mac app
Amiga Imager updates itself, keeps tokens and Wi-Fi passwords in the macOS Keychain, saves and shares build profiles, and speaks English and German.
Confirmed across hardware and emulators
The same project can move between PiStorm, Classic hardware, UAE, Amiberry, and MiSTer including RTG-enabled setups without rebuilding the workflow from scratch, making cross-platform testing and iteration much easier.
