is in the FAQ directory not the doc directory.  (btw.. I've been
reading through the amiga and NetBSD mmu stuff and there seems
to be some slight changes of interface. One thing not mentioned
in the pmap-notes file is the MACHINE_NONCONTIG which seems to
play a similar role as the MACHINE_POGED variable in the notes.
From the sources it looks like the x86 port is using
MACHINE_NONCONTIG to deal with the 0-640k and then 1meg+, where-
as the amiga port doesnt define this and assumes all memory is
in just one chunk.  The differences between the two interfaces
are a bit larger than just changing the define though, some new
routines in arch/amiga/amiga/pmap.c need be written).
