1.9 deraadt 21: The Amiga port is basically the same as the NetBSD/amiga port
22: but with some additions. The major changes are:
23: </p>
24:
25: <ul>
1.12 niklas 26: <li>New interrupt remapping system.
27: <li>Support for using ISA peripherals via a bridgecard.
28: <li>Supports GGBus+ (aka GoldenGate II) and CrossLink bridgecards
1.15 niklas 29: (Neither of these support ISA DMA thus no PC floppy support)
1.11 niklas 30: <li>Tested ISA devices are
31: <ul>
32: <li>com (Standard PC serial ports)
1.15 niklas 33: <li>lpt (Standard PC parallel ports)
1.11 niklas 34: <li>ast (AST 4-port serial card)
35: <li>wd (IDE harddisk)
1.12 niklas 36: <li>acd (IDE ATAPI CD, both data & audio support)
1.11 niklas 37: <li>if_ed, although named if_isaed due to name clash
38: (dp8390 based ethernet cards, like 3c503, NE2000 & SMC Ultra).
39: </ul>
40: Others should port easily as long as DMA isn't necessary.
41: <li>SunOS emulation can use shared libraries on the '040
1.18 ! niklas 42: <li>Understand BSD disklabels if Amiga RDB partitining is not found.

47: <ul>
48: <li>Ramdisk device.
49: <li>Make it possible to use the ADOS fs on vnds (virtual block devices)
50: <li>Optimize the remapping interrupt system.
51: <li>HP-UX emulation.
52: <li>NCR SVR3 Unix emulation.
53: <li>AMIX emulation.
54: <li>Writable ADOSFS.
55: <li>Test aic (Adaptec 1522) and boca (Boca's multiport serial cards).
