ArkOS

Another rockchip Operating System. This OS came about from an initial fork of The Retro Arena to support a roms folder on a NTFS partition so that the management of roms could be done by simply putting you SD card into an appropriate card reader on a Windows 10 computer. Through various upgrades and tweaks overtime, it has diverged significantly from TheRA and it's time to rebrand this distro. With suggestions provided by community members, ArkOS was chosen.

Features

Allows for core changes per system and per game
Documentation available
Much faster loading speed
Remote access services (SSH and Samba) are disabled by default for security and reduced resource usage
ArkOS Browser powered by FileBrowser for managing roms via a web browser
Kodi media player and entertainment hub for digital media
Optimized kernel and very few running backend OS services to maximize resources for emulation performance
