Linux on a Commodore 64

https://github.com/onnokort/semu-c64

Summary: GitHub user onnokort has created a project called "semu-c64" that enables running Linux on a Commodore C64. However, it requires a RAM Expansion Unit (REU) and runs extremely slowly. The project is a fork of the minimalist RISC-V32 emulator "semu" and is compiled and ported using llvm-mos. The creator has not tested it on real hardware yet and is seeking timelapse videos of an original unit with REU booting Linux.
