   I don't have any real hardware here so was trying an Amiga emulator   
   (fs-uae), so I "have" what it needs (Amiga 500-3000 I believe with any   
   combination of additional hardware). The problem was I could find an Amix   
   hard disk image or one for the Amiga Debian Linux, which even was   
   accepted by the emulator.
