    a1200 with a 68030 should run this fine aswell, so can i get a copy ?
    :-)

    You will need to have an Accel. card with at least 32mb of ram (64/128 would be better), and a lot of time (it took 48hrs to install on my machine: A3000, Cyberstorm Mk1, 128mb ram, scsi hd. cybervision gfx card).

    If your going to download it, you'll need ADSL or better. Point your browser at http://www.debian.org choose a mirror and go for it.

    The latest version is 3.1r5

    48 HOURS? Well is it actually useable? I installed Linux on a 486-DX 50
    Mhz and it took 4 Hours to recompile the kernal.

    I have been playing around with the ToSec Rom collection and Winae...

    48 HOURS? Well is it actually useable? I installed Linux on a 486-DX
    50 Mhz and it took 4 Hours to recompile the kernal.

    It was something like that! (This was two months ago). Aptitude and yum updating the system was the most painfull part of the install. I have only been able to get the serial ppp connection running at 19200bps before lots and lots of error's start.

    Useable: Duno yet, so far it's been a learning experiance. I'm not used to the way debian does things. I have really only put debian onto the 'miggy' to give it something todo.

    I tryed compiling the bbs on it, but that failed with lots of gcc compile error's.

    to compare it, a core2 duo just 6 min for a full gentoo kernel

    but it safer to use amiga hardware for the heath :-)

    what bbs ?

    all files on http://www.aminet.net in the dev-gg should be possible to backport/compile on debian m68k

    but get a binkd compiled is first step for using fidonet with it :-)

    it failed ?, have you tryed cross compile from linux ?, if its possible it could be very cool to have working :)

    i belive the hardest thing is to find a matching gcc on both arch's
