Differences at least are that TT is able to use DMA to TT-ram (NO_TTRAM_DMA

NO_TTRAM_DMA.
Hmm, that is consistent with Michael's comment that the
original Falcon CPU only had 23 address lines and DMA would be
limited to <16MB
Lots of nice things to do with NetBSD/Atari port :) In my view working
installer would be _very_ good thing for now. I'm sure that more people will
use NetBSD if installation of latest version is possible. NetBSD is very
tempting alternative OS for CT60/63 boosted Falcons :)
Well, the NetBSD source tree is about to branch for 5.0, so now
is a great time to get issues fixed for the next release :)
