- How does one go about detmining what processor you are running on? On my
- machine type only 68000, '010, '020, '030, and '040 are available and I need
- to be able to know which I'm running on. I also need to know how to shut off
- the caches on the before mentioned processors. I've though about using an
- illegal instruction trap, but I'm sure there has to be a more elegent method.
- If there's a FAQ for this, sorry, but point me in its direction. :)
