I built a 68008 breadboard 'computer' as a student with 6522 VIA, an EPROM of 'code', some RAM and some LED lights to show if anyone was home. It took a lot of work to get that far. And that was a long time ago. The benefits of the 68008 were the same - minimal pins to wire up, more chance of it actually working.

Anyway I am impressed that someone can get a distro working on 68008, getting to the start line of that project is a big deal, going the extra miles - very impressive!
