A few of us have gotten it working. See the Wiki (http://amix.failsure.net/tiki-index.php). Failure, a user here, runs it.

And FYI, the ADF isn't enough. You need the tape image as well...

Ah great, you should be good to go, then. Now that WinUAE supports AMIX it should be fairly easy to get running. I did my system the old fashioned way a few years ago, obscure hardware and all! (never did get that 2410 graphics card, though...)

I am currently running Amix on my A3000T. Very interesting stuff, but software is scarce. So if you have anything not yet available, especially software for Amix, please tell more.

There is a lengthy discussion about just using and installing Amix in the EAB thread "Amix in WinUAE" (http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=67210&page=12). Some instructions and pre-made hard disk images are available at VintageBytes.de (http://www.vintagebytes.de/amix/index.html).
