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.
