To confuse you and others even more: none of this. I try to run LUnix,
which is a UNIX-like operating system naively on a Commodore64. But
since I don't own a real C64, I emulate it with VICE. So I want to run a
Commodore 64 emulator (VICE, that already works) and in that emulated
Commodore 64 emulator LUnix.

I use UAE when it comes to the Amiga. But my question has nothing to do
with the Amiga. But am now interested to emulate a C64 inside an Amiga,
which is also an emulation. I might even find something to emulate in the
emulated C64. ;-)
