I have an

A4000
Cyberstorm Mk1 68040/40 with about 72ish mb ram
Picasso IV
XSurf 3
Buddha

its usuable, i imagine with an 060 it will run great!

regarding the kernel crashing problems what command line argument are you using to launch linux? ill paste mine up here later,

I ran it in 16 bit but the colours seem to be messed up, in 8 bit it works fine. although its not perfect, when it comes to linux i am no expert, i still have to sort out the workspace size and other stuff, ill figure it out eventually

i was reading the documentation for CLGEN and he says in the docs that 16 and 24 bit are not supported yet, i dont know if this has changed since he wrote that but it isnt working for me.. only 8-bit

try booting with the amiga set to original chip set, i got some pretty screwy thing happen to me when i used aga (it worked in original), but then i changed the driver to clgen anyway
