Can't get the HD image to boot after install on Qemu, so I'm going to make space on my 2nd drive.

 BTW, if I wanted to put my ROMS and ADF Work Bench files on the X-Amiga CD-ROM, how would I go about doing that?

And the files will just show up if I drop them in the ROOT of the CD?

 Anyhow I installed to my second partition, rebooted, no grub.

 Made 2nd drive bootable, rebooted went to BIOS told it to boot from 2nd drive, but only got Black screen like I was booting in Qemu.

It's more like something for if you want to pick up a cheap yet fast machine to dedicate as an Amiga box, only under the hood it's actually Linux.

It's cheaper than an Coldfire, and more compatable I guess considering you can get something that's about 2ghz for under $200 anymore.



Personally I'd like to see it running on a Tablet PC with touch screen.


 Of course I still can't get it to boot on real or virtual hardware. :/

I'd personally (assuming you got $200 to spare) suggest buying a cheap all in one unit just for the purpose. Shockingly enough for around that price range you can pick up a system with AMD in it as opposed to Celeron.
 Then again it does not look like many of us will be doing much of anything with this until another release comes out.

I can't see it running any faster than that on 400Mhz machines is all I'm saying. If you want more out of this kit, then you need faster hardware.
