well i was thinking of trying to install linux on my A1200 and you need the mmu enabled apparently

The MMUs are often disabled on 030s because they aren't of high enough quality. Those chips are then rebranded as EC030s.
I managed to get VM working on my old EC030 without problems, I can imagine it could just aswell not have worked.

So, try to install Linux on the box. X will be slow as hell, but it'll do for console operations. I did it with my old 486@25MHz.
Beating the dead horse since 2002.
