There was some talk about the Amiga version of NetBSD here lately and I was
wondering if anyone has done an Amiga filesystem for i386-*BSD?  Something
like PCFS but for Amiga disks.

Hi,

A short question for those in the know:
Does FreeBSD solve the 386BSD problem of not allowing the more
than 16M on an ISA bus due to DMA problems?  (Network and SCSI
cards seem to be the main causes of these DMA problems.)

Geoff.
