1.48      miod       24: OpenBSD/amiga used to run on the Amiga machines manufactured by Commodore.
                     25: It used to require a Motorola 68020 or better processor, with an external
                     26: Motorola 68851 PMMU in case of a 68020.

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

                     48: After a few years, due to the lack of users, this port was slowly left in

                     50: to stop supporting it and remove the code from the tree.
