The 128MB limit is the limitation of the A3000/A4000 CPU Slot.


A cpu card can be designed with as much memory as the designer chooses, but only 128mb will be accessible to the DMA controller on the motherboard. A new card would probably have it's own DMA controller to address the full memory on board.

The zorro bus is, I think, limited to 1.75GB ram, so amigaos probably cannot manage more than 2GB ram.
