1.48 miod 19: OpenBSD/amiga used to run on the Amiga machines manufactured by Commodore.
20: It used to require a Motorola 68020 or better processor, with an external
21: Motorola 68851 PMMU in case of a 68020.
22: This left out models 500, 600 and 1000 which can not receive accelerator
1.41 miod 23: boards.

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.
