Kyvos 2.2.0 got released. Here is a list of what changed
## [2.2.0] - 2026-06-10
### Added
- Added an option in "Graphics device" field to select vmware on AROS systems
- Added support for the Virtio9PFS shared folders
- Added support for the VirtualSCSIDevice by derfsss (
https://github.com/derfsss/VirtualSCSIDevice). Now it is possible to set which disk images will be mounted with the SCSI devices by enabling the checkbox beside the paths.
- If the VirtualSCSIDevice.lha is placed in the same folder with the AmigaOS 4.1 FE ISO, it will be included during the creation of the kickstarter.zip file automatically. It needs to be downloaded from the [VirtualSCSIDevice releases](
https://github.com/derfsss/VirtualSCSIDevice/releases) and renamed to VirtualSCSIDevice.lha. This is a process that is happening when an AmigaOS 4.1 FE system is created, emulated on AmigaOne XE or Pegasos 2. Those are the only ones supported by this method. If you are emulating a Sam460ex, the installation needs to be done manually before using the SCSI options.
- Added a Kickstart editor for existing AmigaOS 4 kickstart.zip files. It can open and rebuild the archive, preserve the kicklayout order, show detected component versions, add files by requester or drag and drop, remove and reorder entries, enable or disable modules, extract the current contents to a folder, and save the result with a timestamped .bak backup of the original archive.
- Added support for MorphOS 3.20
### Changed
- Now the "Graphics device" field contains only the valid values per system
- If the ati-vga driver is placed in the same folder with the AmigaOS 4.1 FE ISO, it will be included during the creation of the kickstarter.zip file automatically. It needs to be downloaded from [
http://zero.eik.bme.hu/~balaton/qemu/amiga/](
http://zero.eik.bme.hu/~balaton/qemu/amiga/) and renamed to qemu-ati-vga-driver.zip. This is a process that is happening when an AmigaOS 4.1 FE system is created, emulated on AmigaOne XE or Pegasos 2. Those are the only ones supported by this method.
### Fixed
- The AROS system was not booting correctly from the ISOs, and I changed the ide devices to sata (ahci) which solved the issue
- Fixed VMs being shown as running after a crash or unexpected exit by deleting the PID file when QEMU exits and verifying the process is actually alive (via /proc) on startup before trusting a stale PID file
