A/UX has been brought up on several occasions recently as "The UNIX to use
on m68k". While this may not be completely true, it is the only UNIX that
has Classic support on 68k machines. As a matter of fact, it runs 7.0.1 with
the update. :-)

http://www.faqs.org/faqs/aux-faq/ This will answer a lot of questions about
A/UX.

It's hard to tell whether you should run A/UX, NetBSD, or Linux-m68k. If you
can get by with Apple-standard protocols like AppleTalk (There is an Apache
webserver port), use A/UX. If you need more open-source programs things are
a little tougher to decide on. You could try to port to A/UX (According to
the FAQ, gcc and make exist), or you're left with NetBSD and Linux. It's my
understanding that NetBSD is desireable over Linux-m68k unless NetBSD
doesn't support your hardware.
