You can download the instructions (png format) from Aminet at:
http://aminet.net/package/docs/help/AMIthlon_setup2

or go to the source (pdf format) located at:
http://www.a1k.org/forum/index.php?mode=viewthread&forum_id=22&thread=19

I used these instructions to install Amithlon onto my hard drive with dual-boot (Amithlon/Windows XP). Works real nice.

Perhaps you can give us a little more specific information as to what steps you're having problems with.

to have a PC with only Amithlon system there are 2 way:

1) you must boot with amithlon cdrom

This is the easy way..:)

2) the other way is to make a little partion with msdos and install here the commands to start amithlon from here, but i reccomend you to read this site
