 On the Amiga the size of FastRAM is relevant towards the total memory  
 requirements.  Also, using Zorro cards with 16-bit RAM is not  
 supported; you'll need 32-bit RAM.  The <command>amiboot</command>  
 program can be used to disable 16-bit RAM; see the  
 <ulink url="&url-m68k-faq;">Linux/m68k FAQ</ulink>.  Recent kernels should  
 disable 16-bit RAM automatically.

 On the Atari, both ST-RAM and Fast RAM (TT-RAM) are used by Linux.  
 Many users have reported problems running the kernel itself in Fast  
 RAM, so the Atari bootstrap will place the kernel in ST-RAM. The  
 minimum requirement for ST-RAM is 2 MB. You will need an additional  
 12 MB or more of TT-RAM.

 On the Macintosh, care should be taken on machines with RAM-based  
 video (RBV). The RAM segment at physical address 0 is used as screen  
 memory, making the default load position for the kernel unavailable.  
 The alternate RAM segment used for kernel and RAMdisk must be at least  
 4 MB.
