@lordv:

AWESOME!

Maybe you should talk to Individual Computers and join'em on their A600 accelerator project...

Of which 8MB is available in linear fashion for Autoconfig(TM).


Can someone elaborate on this? I understand what is meant by linear and Autoconfig, but does it mean that the rest (other  8MB - reserved areas), can't be linear or can't be pooled with the lower 2+4MB ?

Or perhaps it means that because the upper regions (past 10MB) are fragmented due to reserved areas (ROM, etc)

9.5MB would be possible if some of the memory would occupy some other memory areas.


So does that mean some could be mapped past $A3FFFF-$FFFFFF?
I assume that's what Piru was hinting at.

@rkaur:

I assume your response was for me? If so, I'm only asking so I can understand, not so much to have lordv do this. Version 1 is key, the rest is fantasy for now :-)
