Its acronym stands for Multi Arcade Machine Emulator. I was unable to get the front end to execute at all on Debian 9 on Intel. Mame is undoubtedly a good alternative when trying an emulator for our Mac. And the Linux implementation of AMS does not yet support keyboard input. B2 emulates an old 68K Macintosh, while SS emulates a PowerPC Mac.

MAC LASSIC EMULATOR MAC OS X
While AMS works on Mac OS X up to version 10.12 - both on Intel and PowerPC versions of the operating system - the code currently won't compile on MacOS Mojave. Do you use an Intel-based Mac but still have a few essential Classic (pre-OS X) Mac applications you want to run Recent universal compiles allow you to use SheepShaver (SS) or Basilisk II (B2) to run Classic software in emulation on Intel Macs under Mac OS X directly - or under Windows via dual-boot or Parallels virtualization. Unfortunately, there's still a lot of work to be done. Applications are launched from the command line for now and are executed by the emulation software, which interprets the system and firmware calls. A version of the project, downloadable from Github, includes a "Welcome" screen application (a sort of Mac OS "hello world"), Mac Tic-Tac-Toe, and an animation of NyanCat. He showed me an early attempt at getting the game LoadRunner to work with the emulator - it's not yet interactive. I got a demo of AMS from Juran at Shmoocon in Washington, DC, this past weekend. But AMS uses a set of software libraries that allow old Mac applications to launch right within the operating environment of the host device, without needing to have a full virtual hardware and operating system instance behind them.
MAC LASSIC EMULATOR INSTALL
Other emulators out there for 64000 Mac applications such as Basilisk II require a copy of MacOS installation media - such as install CDs from Mac OS 7.5 or Mac OS 8.

Advanced Mac Substitute is an effort by long-time Mac hacker Josh Juran to make it possible to run old Mac OS software (up to Mac OS 6) without a need for an Apple ROM or system software. An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica, written by Sean Gallagher: Want to be able to run classic Mac OS applications compiled for the Motorola 68000 series of processors on your ever-so-modern Mac OS X machine? Or maybe you'd rather run them on a Raspberry Pi, or an Android device for that matter? There's an emulation project that's trying to achieve just that: Advanced Mac Substitute (AMS).
