+NetBSD/amiga 1.1 runs on any amiga that has a 68020 or better CPU
+with some form of FPU and MMU.  The minimal configuration requires
+4M of RAM and about 65M of disk space.  To install the entire system
+>>>                 ^^^
+requires much more disk space, and to run X or compile the system,
+more RAM is recommended.  (4M of RAM will actually allow you to
+compile, however it won't be speedy.  X really isn't usable on a
+4M system)
+
+Here is a table of recommended HD partition sizes for a full install:
+	partition:	advise,	with X,	needed,	with X
+	root (/)	15M	15M	10M	10M
+	user (/usr)	65M	100M	45M 	80M
+	swap		----- 2M for every M ram -----
+	local (/local)	up to you
+>>> adjust sizes?
+
+As you may note the recommended size of /usr is 20M greater than
+needed. This is to leave room for a kernel source and compile tree
+as you will probably want to compile your own kernel. (GENERIC is
+large and bulky to accommodate all people).
+

+	A4000/A1200 IDE controller.
