                     20: It used to require a Motorola 68020 or better processor, with an external

                     35: The OpenBSD/amiga was initially derived from NetBSD/amiga in 1995, and
                     36: used to loosely track the NetBSD changes until 1998. Niklas Hallqvist also
                     37: wrote a new interrupt remapping system, improving average performance,
                     38: revamped the installation media, and ported the ISA bus support to a
                     39: big-endian platform, for GoldenGate II and CrossLink cards.

                     43: After a few years, due to the lack of users, this port was slowly left in
                     44: oblivion, although releases were still being made. Eventually, it was decided
                     45: to stop supporting it and remove the code from the tree.
