Folks, this is cross-posted to both the Rocketeer and MacX lists in the 
hope that someone can help. I have a Stage II Rocket installed in a Duo 
Dock with a Duo 230. It works; I can boot up and run 7.1 on the Rocket.

What I'd really like to do is run A/UX (or some *Nix variant) on the 
Rocket. There appears no way to get NetBSD or Debian 68K Linux to work 
on the Rocket, as this would require a lot of low-level work (certainly 
beyond my capability) to get a kernel to run. (Mind you, as I have a 
number of 68K Mac's running either Linux or NetBSD, it would certainly 
add some power if the cards could be treated as co-processors--never 
mind, I'm dreaming).

I have A/UX, and tried to install it on the Rocket; however, running the 
installer off the boot floppy causes the machine to reboot, which of 
course shuts off the Rocket. Running off the CD seems to work better, 
but the installer goes into never-never land; there is disk activity but 
nothing happens. Anyone got any ideas?

My only option may be to acquire Tenon's 68k version of their MachTen 
product.
