Amithlon was an attempt (and a successful one) to get AmigaOS 3.9 running on cheap and modern x86 hardware. The goal was to make it feel as much like a real Amiga as possible. A linux kernel was modified to boot the x86 hardware and launch the Amithlon emulator, which has an advanced JIT 68k emulation at its core. Amiga-side drivers are capable of accessing the x86 hardware directly, or, using a abstraction layer that supports many underlying cards. It is also possible to compile x86 native code and run it within AmigaOS 3.9. The Amiga's AGA chipset was not directly supported, however hardware-hitting games could still be run through UAE inside the Amithlon emulation.
The original authors (Mr. Bernie Meyer and Mr. Harald Frank), and the distributor (Haage & Partner) have abandoned the product. However, over the years there have been several updates to the Amithlon kernel from third-party developers. They are listed below.
