Yes, the J11 is the only chipset that have split I&D space. All other
I&D space processors were made with several boards.
And yes, as far as I know, 2.9BSD should be able to run on a J11. I
don't remember if it was capable of taking advantage of split I&D space,
but I think it was.
Doh! Misunderstood the last question...
As far as running 2.9BSD without split I&D space, I've definitely read
about it being able. I think it was mentioned somewhere, that this was
the last version known to be able to do this.
