The 1.4 and later family of releases for NetBSD/atari run on a TT030, a Falcon, and a Hades. The Hades kernel does ONLY support the Tseng-type PCI video card. If you have a Hades with a different video card, you have to use the serial console. Starting with NetBSD-1.6, the MilanI is also supported. An FPU is not required. The minimum amount of RAM required is 4Mb for the TT030 and Falcon. For the Hades and Milan, 16MB is the required minimum. You will need at least 120MB free space on your hard disk, but it is recommended that you provide twice as much, especially if you plan to install X11 or build your own kernel. Add the space needed for applications and data you plan to install.
