No, that is for the AmigaXL emulation that runs under QNX, not Amithlon.
AmigaXL is like UAE running under the QNX Operating System. You log in to your QNX session and run AmigaXL and can flip back and forth between the two. AmigaXL uses the hardware that QNX is using by talking through emulation layers between AmigaOS and QNX.
Amithlon is an emulation that contains a stripped down linux kernel to interact with I/O between AmigaOS and the physical hardware. You can boot to DOS and launch Amithlon....or boot to linux and launch Amithlon......and Amithlon will kick those "boot" OS's out of the way and use it's specific linux kernel. Amithlon then talks directly to the hardware.
