Funny to see these anti-amiga fanatics polluting threads, too. Did you even read the Linux list posts? I'm not an AmigaOne advocate by any stretch, but it seems to me Ole-Egil and the other guys trying to get Linux going on the AmigaOne are just working with what they've been given. I didn't see any "religion" in that thread, only information on their set-up and questions about how to proceed. Talk about cheap shots.
