hardware revision 1.11 
1NetBSD/amiga 1.2 runs on any Amiga that has a 68020 or better CPU with
2some form of FPU and MMU, and on DraCos which still have a CIA.

4The minimal configuration requires 4M of RAM and about 75M of disk
5space.  To install the entire system requires much more disk space,
6and to run X or compile the system, more RAM is recommended.  (4M of
7RAM will actually allow you to compile, however it won't be speedy. X
8really isn't usable on a 4M system.)
9
10Here is a table of recommended HD partition sizes for a full install:
11	partition:	advise,	with X,	needed,	with X
12	root (/)	20M	20M	15M	15M
13	user (/usr)	80M	110M	60M 	90M
14	swap		----- 2M for every M ram -----
15	local (/local)	up to you
16
17
18As you may note the recommended size of /usr is 20M greater than
19needed. This is to leave room for a kernel source and compile tree as
20you will probably want to compile your own kernel. (GENERIC is large
21and bulky to accommodate all people).
22
23If you only have 4M of fast memory, you should make your swap partition
24larger, as your system will be doing much more swapping.

68	Amiga floppy drives with Amiga (880/1760kB) and 
69		IBM (720/1440kB) encoding. ****)
70	Amiga parallel port.
71	Amiga serial port.
72	Amiga mouse.
73
74If its not on the above lists, there is no support for it in this
75release. Especially (but this is an incomplete list), there is no
76driver for:
77
78	Cyberstorm SCSI option, Blizzard IV SCSI, Blizzard 2060 SCSI,
79	Ferret SCSI, Oktagon SCSI, CyberVision64/3D.
80
81Known problems with some hardware:
82
83	*) the Emplant SCSI adapter has been reported by a party to
84	hang after doing part of the installation without problems.
85
86	**) Fastlane SCSI is reported to show data errors and hangs at
87	least when used with multiple devices on the bus. This might
88	be a problem with any FAS board.
89
90	***) SCSI scanner support is machine independent, so it should
91	work, but hasn't been tested yet on most Amiga configurations.
92	There are reports that the Mustek and HP Scanjet hang if
93	accessed from the A3000. This might apply to other
94	33C93-Adapters, too.
95
96	****) Our floppy driver doesn't notice when mounted floppies are 
97	write-protected at the moment. Your floppy will stay
98	unchanged, but you might not notice that you didn't write
99	anything due to the buffer cache. Also note that HD floppy
100	drives only get detected as such if a HD floppy is inserted at
101	boot time.
