Re: [hatari-devel] Atari TT emulation and SCSI/Atari SysV Unix

Hi,

One more thing: Both Linux-68K (at least the early Debian distributions)
and ASV support the Riebel network card (VME). So in the ideal case Hatari
would emulate the VME bus and a Riebel card. Probably very hard to do, but
great for everybody looking for challenging emulations.

Take care

Uwe
