OK, now I get it :-)

And now I know that it's BasiliskII that I want working, since it's for
nostalgia... to run Systems 6 and 7 emulating old-ish 680x0 Macs. The goal
is to build a Mac SE + Mini ITX in the next couple of weeks, as I already
have the late Mac SE, adapted a 9" SVGA (800x600!) display in it and
ordered a Mini-ITX motherboard... next step is sawing and soldering :-)

Like all my other computers, I plan to use Fedora Core on it, which is why
I'd really like to get BasiliskII running on FC3.
