Is it possible to install ANY LinuxOS on a real Amiga?
« on: July 30, 2004, 08:24:12 AM »
Greetings,

I mean, look at A3000UX, it ran an AT&T unix. Unfortunately, It's the only one of it's kind.
Out of curiosity.... It is possible to run any Linux based OS on a REAL amiga(e.i A1200 running KNOPPIX, or REDHAT on an A4000)(of course,expanded with GFX cards and all). Would be nice to see Xwindows running on a real Amiga?

Has Someone here has ever done that already or at least attempted it?

Regards,

Gizz
