There is no kernel support for this model. I tried to build an 060 kernel
for atari, but it failed. 2.4.x kernels for m68k are pretty much untested.

One of the follow-up posts was from Roman, who knows about Ataris:

|Ad Milan: It is basically a Motorola CPU plus a standard PC chipset

No kernel support, no boot-floppies support. I think you can close the bug,
unless the submitter gives us some kernel patches (or Roman his machine),
