Does the emulator feel like the *only* operating on the system, or does it behave like an emulator running on linux? What I mean by this is, does it take full control or can you switch back to knoppix or view the emulator option menus, etc.


You almost only see the progress display, so it looks as if AmigaOS is loaded at once. There are only a few seconds before the X server is started where you see some text output from Linux.

However, the emulator is read-only. Unless you are familiar with Knoppix and Linux you have to work with the setup as it is on the CD. You can browse the web with AWeb and paint some pictures with PPaint, but you cannot save anything. And you cannot change the UAE config. There is very few memory configured for AmigaOS.
