                     22: but with some additions. The major changes are:

1.12      niklas     26: <li>New interrupt remapping system.
                     27: <li>Support for using ISA peripherals via a bridgecard.

        !            29: (aka GoldenGate II) and CrossLink bridgecards
1.15      niklas     30: (Neither of these support ISA DMA thus no PC floppy support)

1.11      niklas     38: <li>if_ed, although named if_isaed due to name clash
                     39: (dp8390 based ethernet cards, like 3c503, NE2000 & SMC Ultra).

                     41: Others should port easily as long as DMA isn't necessary.
                     42: <li>SunOS emulation can use shared libraries on the '040
1.18      niklas     43: <li>Understand BSD disklabels if Amiga RDB partitining is not found.
