I created an awesome Amiga env on Linux!

Hey all!
I created a cool Amiga emulation environment based on Linux of my own. I started by booting Debian netinstall, I installed only the base system and LiLo instead of GRUB2 (I'll explain why in a moment). When it booted in for the first time, I did a 'no-install-reccomends' of xorg. I figured out how to auto login when the computer starts without having to use a desktop manager. I compiled a console autologin program in C which I found the source online. Then I made a .xinitrc that only loads FS-UAE (no launcher) when X starts and starts a full-screen session of AmigaOS 3.1 with Picasso and TCP/IP stack for high screen resolutions and Internet. I setup my laptop's WiFi card to start at boot to connect to my home network without any graphical network manager, that way Internet is seamless in AmigaOS.  (I have a Linux native compatible Broadcom based WiFi card in my laptop) Now, about LiLo - It can be made not to show the boot-up process so it's a black screen at boot until AmigaOS starts up. You can get back into the Bash prompt with the usual Alt-Fx to login as root to setup network etc. I'm gonna write a document explaining setup-by-step of my process.

Cool huh?

Here is a video on YouTube that I recorded of my laptop booting into my Debian Amiga remix. The document describing how to setup such a system will be shared here soon as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpQe39_Eggk

Hey guys,

I am in the process of creating a live version of the distro that can also be installed. Users will have to add their own Amiga OS 3.1 system files of course.
