Short: 68040 utility by Nic Wilson
Type: util/misc
Uploader: vedovatt@u.washington.edu
Excellent shareware utility by Nic Wilson.
FUNCTION:
1. To remap Kickstart V2.04 or greater from ROM into
FAST RAM on an Amiga equipped with a 68040 CPU, using
the MMU, with options for various functions.
This remapped kickstart gives a vast improvement in
the speed the 68040 can access kickstart, and faster than
any hardware re-mapping of Kickstart.
2. To remap Kickstart V2.04 or greater on an Amiga equipped
with an A3640 card such as the A4000 and to survive a
reboot without using the MMU.
3. FASTROM can be done in a default memory efficient mode,
or a full map addressing mode.
4. To allow the FASTROM remap to be removed and
all resources reclaimed.
5. To load and remap, a different Kickstart from disk or file
and use the MMU to boot into this Kickstart. Kickstarts
1.2, 1.3. 2.04, 3.0 or greater are supported. An option
to completely survive a reboot is supported.
6. To manipulate both the 68040 caches and the various modes.
7. To display brief or verbose information regarding the
setting of the MMU remap, and 68040 registers and modes.
8. To switch between the 68040 and 68030 on any Progressive
Peripherals & Software 68040 card.
9. To sum up, this program gives the user of a 68040 the
facilities he lost when ROMS were fitted, plus some
extra ones and with greater flexibility.
