1.48 miod 20: OpenBSD/amiga used to run on the Amiga machines manufactured by Commodore.
21: It used to require a Motorola 68020 or better processor, with an external
22: Motorola 68851 PMMU in case of a 68020.
23: This left out models 500, 600 and 1000 which can not receive accelerator
1.41 miod 24: boards.

32: The source code is still available in the CVS Attic, and code can be found in
33: NetBSD as well.

51: The OpenBSD/amiga was initially derived from NetBSD/amiga in 1995, and
52: used to loosely track the NetBSD changes until 1998. Niklas Hallqvist also
53: wrote a new interrupt remapping system, improving average performance,
54: revamped the installation media, and ported the ISA bus support to a
55: big-endian platform, for GoldenGate II and CrossLink cards.
56: </p>
57:
58: <p>
59: After a few years, due to the lack of users, this port was slowly left in
60: oblivion, although releases were still being made. Eventually, it was decided
61: to stop supporting it and remove the code from the tree.
