Why does NetBSD need 2.04 ? I don't see why KS1.0 (if it's still around)
won't do ? I haven't looked at the NetBSD source code, but I assume the
only thing it needs the Amiga OS for is to boot the kernel, and this should
be quite easy to write in a KS1.0 compliant way. If I'm wrong here, then
please tell me which other parts of NetBSD use functions from ROM ...
