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.
1.19 niklas 28: <li>Supports <a href=http://www.infinet.com/~erd/GG2/>GG2 Bus+</a>
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 31: <li>Tested ISA devices are
32: <ul>
33: <li>com (Standard PC serial ports)
1.15 niklas 34: <li>lpt (Standard PC parallel ports)
1.11 niklas 35: <li>ast (AST 4-port serial card)
36: <li>wd (IDE harddisk)
1.12 niklas 37: <li>acd (IDE ATAPI CD, both data & audio 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).
40: </ul>
41: Others should port easily as long as DMA isn't necessary.
42: <li>SunOS emulation can use shared libraries on the '040
1.25 todd 43: <li>Understand BSD disklabels if Amiga RDB partitioning is not found.
1.26 niklas 44: <li>Ramdisk device for easy installs
