This section merely +outlines the basics. + + + +The &architecture; port of Linux runs on any 680x0 with a PMMU (Paged +Memory Management Unit) and a FPU (floating-point unit). This +includes the 68020 with an external 68851 PMMU, the 68030, and better, +and excludes the ``EC'' line of 680x0 processors. See the +Linux/m68k FAQ for complete details. + + + +There are four major flavors of supported +&architecture; flavors: Amiga, Atari, Macintosh +and VME machines. Amiga and Atari were the first two systems to which +Linux was ported; in keeping, they are also the two most +well-supported Debian ports. The Macintosh line is supported +incompletely, both by Debian and by the Linux kernel; see +Linux m68k for Macintosh for project +status and supported hardware. The BVM and Motorola single board +VMEbus computers are the most recent addition to the list of machines +supported by Debian. Ports to other &architecture; architectures, +such as the Sun3 architecture and NeXT black box, are underway but not +yet supported by Debian. + + + + + + -- cgit v1.2.3
