Does NetBSD count? or Minix? Trying to make NetBSD go on my A500/030/882/10Mb/2Gb. Based on my minimal Linux exposure it's a tough crawl. Got Minix going (not bad but doesn't like the 030). Can't even get BSD to boot the installer yet. It will come. I just think it'll be kind of cool to run the same OS on my 15-year-old Ami and my new 2.2Ghz laptop.

@failure

It's a CSA MegaMidgetRacer 030/36 (slightly overclocked 33). The chip is actually a 50 but the RAM on the board will only go 36. FPU @ 50 though. I'll give the boot flops a try but don't have a lot of hope unless Amix will support GVP HD II+ controller.
