Amiga UNIX, again
Amigaux.org is a compilation of hobby projects trying to make Commodore's original Amiga UNIX more easily accessible, and to get it running on newer Amiga hardware.
Amiga Unix was Commodore's System V Release 4 for the Amiga. It was notoriously picky on hardware and was basically only installable on the original hardware it was shipped on: the A2500UX and A3000UX.
What that means today: a 68040/68060 port, native drivers for the Z3660 and the A4091/A4092, an installer that does the whole job, and a package repository with modern GNU tools.
amigaux 1.1
Ready-installed disk images for the Z3660, the A3000 and the IDE port, one install CD for every supported machine, and a network install. Drivers load as modules; SSH is on from the first boot. Released 2026-11-10.
