More time will pass, and you will enter the installation script.

As for any early 90s OS, installing Amix is not completely straight-forward.

Here are some notes to help you thrue the process either on real hardware.

Follow either real hardware or WinUAE installation, then proceed to the common main installation section.

Get yourself compatible hardware, an installation tape, install and boot floppies and compatible hardware.

This article gives basic information on installing Amiga UNIX in WinUAE emulator.

Videos on YouTube: Amix install in WinUAE - First boot (installing patch disk).

Options not listed explicitly should be left at their defaults.

AMIX kernel is hard-coded to recognize only 4-16 megs of Fast RAM.

RAM cards will not work since the kernel seems to map the memory address of the SCSI drive wrong with any more than 16 MB RAM.

Apparently you can add 32-bit memory to your config: AMIX will ignore it.

This might be useful if you go to install a dual-booting system (install AMIX, leave space for AmigaDOS partition and then later install Workbench as usual).

Attach as SCSI6 (see note below), Device name: DH0, ReadWrite enabled, Enable RDB mode.

The minimum installation of AMIX 2.1 takes less than 70 MB of space, installing everything on the tape takes about 300 MB.

Do not attempt to use too big hard disk image, you are likely to run intro trouble The SCSI addresses are critical, they are hard-coded into the installation and the script wont look anywhere else than SCSI4 for the install tape.

If the installation script complains that its not seeing any hard disks, check the SCSI address.

Windows users will also need to install WinPCAP if they wish to connect AMIX to a real network (note: WinPCAP does not and cannot work under WINE).

Each time you start WinUAE you may need to Load this configuration.

Once the drive light goes out it may take a few seconds for the next prompt to appear, so dont be too concerned if nothing happens right away.

Note that if you have an Amiga that requires a superkick floppy you do not need to load kickstart before loading AMIX.

After boot has completed, you will be prompted to insert the root floppy.

You may be familiar with this concept from Linux or some other UNIX.
