4 runs on any Amiga that has a 68020 or better CPU with
5 some form of MMU, and on 68060 DraCos.
8 does not, and will never, run on run on
9 A1000, A500, A600, A1200, A2000, A4000/EC030, CDTV and CD32
10 systems that are not enhanced by a CPU board.
12 For 68020 and 68030 systems, a FPU is recommended but not required for the
14 68LC040, 68040V and 68LC060 systems don't work correctly at the moment.
16 The minimal configuration requires 6 MB of RAM (not including CHIPMEM!)
17 and about 100 MB of disk space.
18 To install the entire system requires much more disk space,
19 and to run X or compile the system, more RAM is recommended.
20 (6 MB of RAM will actually allow you to compile,
21 however it won't be speedy.
22 X really isn't usable on a 6 MB system.)
24 You will probably want to compile your own kernel.
26 is large and bulky in order to accommodate all people.
27 For example, most people's machines have an FPU, so you do not need the
28 bulky FPU_EMULATE option.
30 If you have less than 8 MB of fast memory, you should make your swap
31 partition large, as your system will be a lot of swapping.
34 place your swap partition onto a old small (and normally slow) disk!
36 .Ss2 Supported devices
37 .(bullet -offset indent
38 A4000/A1200 IDE controller, including ATAPI devices
42 33c93 based boards: A2091, A3000 builtin, A3000 builtin modified for Apollo
43 accelerator board (please note that this is not the same as the SCSI host
44 adapter on the Apollo accelerator board itself, which is unsupported),
47 53c80 based boards: 12 Gauge, IVS, Wordsync/Bytesync and Emplant
48 The Emplant SCSI adapter has been reported by a party to
49 hang after doing part of the installation without problems
51 53c710 based boards: A4091, Magnum, Warp Engine, Zeus and DraCo builtin
53 FAS216 based SCSI boards: FastLane Z3, Blizzard I and II, Blizzard IV,
54 Blizzard 2060, CyberSCSI Mk I and II
56 53c770 based SCSI boards: Cyberstorm Mk III SCSI, Cyberstorm PPC SCSI
61 ECS, AGA and A2024 built in on various Amigas
63 Retina Z2 (no X server available), Retina Z3 and Altais
65 Cirrus CL GD 54xx based boards: GVP Spectrum, Picasso II, II+ and IV,
66 Piccolo and Piccolo SD64
68 Tseng ET4000 based boards: Domino and Domino16M proto, oMniBus, Merlin
70 A2410 (no X server available)
81 Melody MPEG-audio layer 2 board
110 Most SCSI tape drives, including Archive Viper, Cipher SCSI-2 ST150
112 SCSI-2 scanners behaving as SCSI-2 scanner devices, HP ScanJet II,
114 SCSI scanner support is machine independent, so it should
115 work, but hasn't been tested on most Amiga configurations.
116 There are reports that the Mustek and HP ScanJet hang if
117 accessed from the A3000.
118 This might apply to other 33C93-Adapters, too.
120 Most SCSI CD-ROM drives
122 Serial/Parallel cards
124 HyperCom 3Z, HyperCom 4, HyperCom 3+ and 4+
126 MultiFaceCard II and III
128 A2232 (normal and clockdoubled)
133 Amiga floppy drives with Amiga (880/1760kB) and
135 (720/1440kB) encoding.
136 Our floppy driver doesn't notice when mounted floppies are
138 Your floppy will stay unchanged, but you might not notice that
139 you didn't write anything due to the buffer cache.
140 Also note that HD floppy drives only get detected as such if a
141 HD floppy is inserted at boot time.
149 DraCo serial port, including serial mouse
151 DraCo parallel printer port
155 A2000, A3000, A4000 builtin (r/w)
161 If it's not on the above lists, there is no support for it in this release.
162 In particular, there are no drivers for: Blizzard III SCSI option,
163 Ferret SCSI, Oktagon SCSI.
