@amiga4001,

Since you have a PPC on your A4000 why dont you try this:

AmigaPPC Linux

A friend of mine had it going and it was pretty nice. I hope you have some kind of graphics card though because X11 on AGA is pretty damn slow.

@amiga4001,

I dont know how serious you are about getting this going but
I think your best bet would be to put the picasso2 in your A4000d with the ppc. That would be the best conf for a AmigaPPC linux box.

The A4000T would give you alot more room for your mediator+voodoo.

That setup would give you a nice 68k machine and a very fast/stable PPC linux setup.

I think just about every 68k version of Linux has built in support for the picassoII so I wouldnt worry about that.

I would also consider the Amiga version of NetBSD

 netbsd amiga page

Its the latest unixOS i've seen released for 68k amiga's.
It would be perfect for a A4000/picassoII setup like yours.
