Unfortunately, NetBSD really requires an MMU. However, let me note that FPGAs generally cost more than inexpensive embedded microprocessors that *do* have MMUs. > Does this mean that NetBSD has never been ported to a non MMU architecture? Correct. Repeating, though, CPUs implemented as FPGAs are usually more costly some hard CPUs with MMUs, like a number of low end embedded MIPS and ARM platforms. Perry
