I am no expert on this kind of thing, but
wouldn't the

Naturally, but I don't think anyone has yet come up with a pointer to
said hardware emulator.
While I have run AmigaDOS and Minix on the Amiga, and one can run *BSD
and AMIX (SysV) on it, I am unaware of CP/M-68K for it. If I am
wrong, please tell me since I am most familiar with this platform and
would easily be able to get up to speed on it.
One could port it, naturally (since at the very least, every Amiga has
a floppy drive and a serial port), but I don't think this is an
out-of-the-box solution.
Well, OK, fair call, but the Miggy was only the 1st MC68K system I listed.
The ST ran something derived from CP/M-68K anyway; was there an
"official" version? Or for the QL?
All 3 were fairly well-documented, so adding support to an existing
multi-system emulator like MESS or QEMU might be a lot more
straightforward than starting one from scratch...
