Short: Amiga Linux setup, install and HOWTO. Author: rjflory@feist.com (Ron Flory) Uploader: horror smartnet co za (Mike Erasmus) Type: misc/unix Architecture: generic Legal mumble jumble: ------------------- I (Mike Erasmus) just found this HOWTO on the newsgroup comp.os.linux.m68k, so I suppose Ron has the copyrights. Thanx, Ron for making this FAQ. Requirements: ------------ Any Amiga from 68020+ WITH a MMU!!! A FPU isn't a neccesaity 'coz you can get a FPU-emulated kernel. But, having one makes life easier. Also, you are gonna need at least 80megs seperate partition for the bare minimum installation. Introduction: ------------ Short: Linux is a Un*x operating system. You won't be reading this if you wanted, eh? Please note: I just found this HOWTO on the newsgroup. it may be faulty. I didn't ask Ron if I may upload to Aminet. But, I don't read the newsgroups often so many people may find this helpful as the last Linux Install HOWTO on Aminet was uploaded in the first half of 1995. We are in March 1997 already. Closing notes: ------------- My language is not English, it is Afrikaans verry close related to Nederlands!!! :-))) or as my Netherlands friends call it: "Zuid-Afrikaans". So do excuse my english. Thanx. IRC notes: --------- KatseNova on #amiga greets everyone, as well as all my friends on #amigacafe. Ek is tans werksaam as 'n stelsel programmeerder in VB4/SQL-Server/JAVA/C++, enige werksaanbod in Europa of Amerika sal hoogs waardeer word :-)) All flames and choclates via e-mail goes to: ------------------------------------------- Mike Erasmus : me@hca.co.za (e-mail at work) OR horror@smartnet.co.za TEL : +27 (0)12-654-8339 (h) TEL : +27 (0)11-706-0311 (w) http://www.mountainark.com/africa/me
