Wouldn't it just be easier and more efficient to just use UAE?  Running Amithlon in QEMU is two complete layers of virtualization versus one layer.

Yes, hence my rhetorical question about efficiency.  Why add extra layers of virtualization?  That will only slow things down due to the complexity.  He'd be better off just running UAE inside Linux or native Amithlon.  Running Amithlon hosted thru QEMU on a Linux platform is no different than running WinUAE thru Wine on a Linux system.....unnecessarily complex.

Thanks for the info.  I wasn't aware of that.  As Amithlon gets older it is MUCH harder to find hardware that will run it.  Makes perfect sense now.
